Kenexa Prove It Accounts Payable Test Preparation

About

An accounts payable clerk is responsible for paying the bills of a business enterprise, in addition to maintaining all payments, transactions, and records. Accounts payable clerks are responsible for compiling debt invoices owed by various companies, vendors, or suppliers. However, it's important to note that the specific requirements and responsibilities of accounts payable clerks vary between business type and size.

Typically, if a business has a smaller accounting staff, then accounts payable clerks have numerous responsibilities and are required to possess an associate degree.

If a business has a larger accounting staff, then some of the responsibilities fall under the purview of other accounting positions. Therefore, accounts payable clerks in this situation may only be required to have a GED or high school diploma.
