Q2 Announces New Solution to Help Financial Institutions Connect Digital Banking With ERP Systems for Commercial Clients
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 19, 2025--
Q2 Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:QTWO), a leading provider of digital transformation solutions for financial services, today announced Direct ERP, a new solution designed to help banks and credit unions enable banking operations directly within commercial customers' enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems. Direct ERP aims to ease the reconciliation process for businesses' accounting departments, leading to greater transparency, increased cash flow, reduced processing time and less manual involvement.
Manual financial processes create inefficiencies between banking and accounting systems, posing challenges to businesses and resulting in poor user experience and a drain on staff and financial resources. Direct ERP removes this friction by integrating banking directly into the ERP system, which automates workflows, enhances security and reduces errors and operational effort for integrations and payment processing. Direct ERP allows commercial clients to initiate payments, retrieve account data and manage reporting and approvals directly from their ERP or accounting system.
'Commercial customers demand efficient and reliable integration between their banking and accounting systems,' said Q2 Chief Technology Officer Adam Blue. 'Direct ERP enables banking operations within the ERP software experience, automating critical payment and reporting workflows. This allows banks and credit unions of all sizes to compete for even the largest corporate customers.'
Most financial institutions still struggle to support this level of integration. According to Datos Insights research, 91% of North American mid-size and large businesses say it's important to conduct banking operations directly within their ERP systems, but few banks and credit unions offer the tools to make that possible.
'At Synovus we're committed to prioritizing automation and streamlining complex processes for our commercial clients,' said Katherine Weislogel, head of treasury and payment solutions at Synovus. 'This new solution enhances our integration technology capabilities and transforms how we support them more efficiently.'
Direct ERP is part of Q2 Direct Data Services, a product family that also includes Direct Payables and Direct Account Recon. Collectively, Q2 Direct Data Services offers financial institutions the opportunity to build stronger bonds with commercial customers by automating the delivery and receipt of payment files via Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) or Application Programming Interface (API).
Integration for Direct ERP into the Q2 Digital Banking Platform is enabled via connection partners such as Koxa and Ninth Wave, who provide access to key ERP systems including NetSuite, Workday, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics Business Central, QuickBooks, and Xero, among others.
Direct Data Services is a key component of Q2 Catalyst, a suite of best-in-class commercial banking solutions designed to help banks and credit unions win more deals, onboard clients faster, serve them better, and grow profitable relationships.

Roku is testing a new look
Roku is experimenting with a new homepage that aims to make it easier to jump into your favorite apps and discover new things to watch. The test is rolling out to a small number of Roku users now and adds new sections like Quick Access, which automatically populates with the apps you visit the most. That means if you're watching Netflix a lot, or often peruse Roku's selection of action movies across multiple apps, the service will put shortcuts to those destinations beneath Quick Access. Right now, there's no way to manually remove or add apps to the Quick Access section, but Preston Smalley, Roku's VP of viewer product, tells The Verge that the company is 'trying some different approaches' to this. 'One of the things we know that's going to be really important is that it just needs to work right out of the box,' Smalley said. 'We're definitely trying to see how much control people want, but that's something we want to hear from customers on.' With the redesign, you'll no longer land on the left-hand sidebar when you select the 'home' button on your remote, either. Now, your cursor will automatically appear within the grid on the homepage, while the panel on the left side remains closed. Roku also moved some of the panel's options to the main grid, including 'Live TV' and 'Featured Free,' with the goal of making them easier to find. 'We had actually some pretty compelling and delightful destinations, but it was only a minority of people that were finding them,' Smalley said. 'What we think will happen with this change, and with what we're testing, is that more users will actually discover some of these great ways to browse across the platform.' These two options now live beneath 'The Best Across Your Streaming Services' section, along with some new tiles, like 'Subscriptions,' where you can view all of your subscription-based content, and 'For You,' which Smalley said is a 'reimagining' of Roku's 'What to Watch' option that serves up personalized recommendations. You'll also find a 'What are you in the mood for?' section that lets you browse shows and movies within different categories, such as 'New & Popular,' 'Food,' and 'Drama.' Though Roku has been experimenting with different types of ads in recent months, the amount — or types — of ads isn't changing as part of this homepage redesign. The large marquee ad on the right side of the homepage will stay in its place, but Roku is moving two ad placements beneath your 'top picks.' 'We're always looking to make the Roku experience just better, more intuitive, more engaging, and even more personalized,' Smalley added. 'What we want to do is make sure that the home screen experience fits well with just how you watch TV today.' As Roku continues testing its new design, it may move things around a bit, so you may not see the format exactly as described here. The company plans on collecting user feedback before widely rolling out the change, and will also give users the ability to opt-out of the update during the test.

BlackRock Is Accused of a Plot Against Coal. The Firm Says That's ‘Absurd.'
Did some of the biggest investors in the world buy up shares in coal companies to force them to produce less coal? An unusual lawsuit in Texas claims that investment firms including BlackRock, Vanguard and State Street did just that, illegally colluding with one another to reduce coal production as part of a conspiracy to fight climate change. In a federal court in Texas on Monday, a lawyer for BlackRock told a judge that the claims 'defy economic reality' and that the lawsuit should be dismissed. 'The complaint ignores that the coal market has been declining for decades for a host of reasons well before this alleged conspiracy,' said Gregg Costa, a lawyer with the firm Gibson Dunn, speaking on behalf of all three defendants. A lawyer for Texas, which filed the suit late last year along with 10 other states, said BlackRock's chief executive, Laurence D. Fink, has written in the past that corporations should set targets for greenhouse-gas reductions. For coal companies, that means 'reducing output,' said the lawyer, Brian Barnes of the firm Cooper & Kirk. Texas, a major oil- and gas-producing state, has taken aggressive action against financial companies over climate issues, including enacting a law that bars state entities from doing business with investment firms that the comptroller says are boycotting energy companies. In January, the Texas attorney general, Ken Paxton, and 10 other state attorneys general sent a letter to financial institutions warning that their policies on climate and environment, as well as diversity, 'could lead to enforcement actions.' As power has changed in Washington, financial firms have walked back their messaging and participation in climate action groups. The complaint in the Texas case noted that BlackRock and State Street had already withdrawn from a trade association known as Climate Action 100+. (Vanguard had not been a member.) The firms have also exited the Net Zero Asset Managers Initiative, which had been a target of criticism from the right. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
