By streamlining manual cash application work that traditionally bogs down accounting teams, Payra helps construction suppliers accelerate their order-to-cash cycle, reduce days sales outstanding, and free up working capital. Payra integrated their solution in partnership with leading construction oriented ERPs to deliver a unified experience for finance teams for minimal disruption to existing workflows.
