LONDON and LOS ANGELES, Sept. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Global e-commerce and online payments leader eBay is teaming up with financial and accounting software company BlackLine Systems and enterprise application software leader SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) for a webinar entitled "See How eBay Closes with Confidence Using Solutions from BlackLine and SAP Globally."

The session will focus on how finance executives and compliance officers can further ensure the integrity of their balance sheets – and ultimately financial reports – by implementing enterprise-class financial software packages, such as BlackLine's SaaS-based Financial Close Suite, to automate the traditionally manual, labor-intensive and spreadsheet-driven account reconciliation process. Tom Hoover, senior manager of finance systems at eBay, will present a case study on the benefits of BlackLine, ease of integration with SAP® solutions, and return on investment (ROI) the $15 billion public company has realised since using BlackLine alongside SAP software on a global basis.
The webinar is designed to inform customers, whether operating in an environment of only SAP solutions or applications from multiple vendors, how account reconciliation process optimisation can help them achieve a quicker and more accurate financial close process. The session will demonstrate the importance of the account reconciliation process as a critical step on the path to "closing with confidence."
