Accounts Payable Services in

San Diego, CA

AP is not “just bill processing.” It’s a financial engine that impacts margins, vendor relationships, operating agility, and cash forecasting.


Our approach helps San Diego businesses:

  • Eliminate late payments and strengthen vendor trust
  • Spot duplicate payments, waste, and spending inefficiencies
  • Capture early-pay discounts and improve negotiation leverage
  • Forecast cash flow with weekly, monthly, or quarterly accuracy
  • Free up admin hours and remove process bottlenecks
  • Reduce fraud risk with multi-layered controls and approval safeguards



Clean, automated AP means you operate with sharper decision-making and tighter cash-cycle discipline.

A More Strategic, Insight-Driven AP Process

Chasing approvals, hunting down vendor invoices, and managing endless email threads shouldn’t consume your week. San Diego companies move with coastal-city speed — your AP process should accelerate operations, not drag them down.


At Straight Talk CPAs, we engineer a fully automated, audit-ready AP system that eliminates chaos, tightens controls, and gives you crystal-clear visibility into every dollar leaving your business.


Whether you’re running a growing firm in Downtown San Diego or managing vendor-heavy operations across North County, our virtual AP services deliver structure, accuracy, and predictable cash flow — without the manual grind.

From Slow, Manual Tasks to a Fully Streamlined AP Workflow

Case Study: From Inconsistent Approvals to Complete AP Control

A San Diego-based logistics operator came to us with a familiar issue — paper invoices, unclear approvals, and unpredictable cash needs. They spent 12 hours a week managing AP, with frequent vendor disputes and missed deadlines.


We rebuilt their AP environment from the ground up:

  • Migrated their workflow to a cloud platform in 18 days
  • Implemented automated invoice capture for three locations
  • Set up 3-way matching for high-volume shipments
  • Built a vendor payment calendar aligned to their cash cycle
  • Reduced late payments to zero within 30 days
  • Returned 9 admin hours weekly back to operations


The result: Consistent approvals, predictable payment cycles, and real-time visibility — without having to chase anyone for updates.
