In 2018, Go Auto implemented Yooz AP Automation to centralize AP Automation across its multi-store Canadian dealership group. The implementation focused on automated invoice processing, workflow routing, and approval orchestration to standardize accounts payable workstreams.
The deployment was staged five stores at a time, enabling iterative learning and troubleshooting during rollout and ultimately covering 40 stores with capacity to add more sites. Training and onboarding were designed to be accessible to both junior and veteran staff because the platform user interface is intuitive and clear. Technical support and onboarding were reported as straightforward, reducing skill-dependent variation in operational readiness.
Yooz AP Automation was configured to ingest invoices and orchestrate approvals while integrating seamlessly with the existing CDK DMS, preserving transactional continuity between dealership operations and finance. This integration supported automated routing of invoice data from dealership systems into AP workflows, reducing manual touchpoints for accounts payable. Operational ownership centered on the finance function, with AP staff managing day-to-day processing and finance leadership overseeing exceptions and policy enforcement.
Executive sponsorship was a key governance signal, the group controller presented recommendations directly to the CFO which enabled rapid strategic decisions and prioritized rollout resources. Change management anticipated resistance but AP staff sentiment shifted from reluctance to strong endorsement, summarized internally as moving from "Why do we have to convert to Yooz?" to "We LOVE Yooz!" The staged rollout, clear governance escalation and accessible vendor support together enabled scaling of the AP Automation capability across the dealer network.
