How AP Automation Works

Intelligent capture is a key component for a modern invoice processing solution. It covers five steps between invoice arrival and posting.

Step 1: Capture Invoice Input

Accommodates a diverse range of input channels, including email, web-based invoice scanning, multifunction printers (MFP), FTP, mobile capture, fax, and more. This flexibility guarantees consistent processing of documents, regardless of their form or format.

Step 2: Read and Classify

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is employed to extract data from documents, with all pertinent information securely stored in the database. The system utilizes machine learning algorithms to automatically categorize documents, enhancing its accuracy and efficiency over time as it processes a wider variety of document types. This solution intelligently leverages the database to compare and analyze the content of each document, enabling the automatic identification and understanding of the information.

Step 3: Data Recognition and Extraction

Data from key invoice fields is accurately identified and extracted. The system incorporates country-specific validation rules and performs invoice matching with both master data and purchase orders (PO). It adeptly handles various document types, seamlessly extracting field-level and line-item details without the need for templates, anchors, keywords, or predefined zones.

Step 4: Data Validation

Data is automatically validated against other data to ensure consistency. The data approval process becomes easier thanks to the intelligent workflow approval that includes automated invoice processing with possibility of manual verification by staff for missing info and instant posting for valid PO-matched documents.

Step 5: Data Export, Archiving and Reporting

Documents and their corresponding metadata are seamlessly exported to the chosen ERP system or data repository, facilitating the onward transfer of invoice data. The automation of invoice indexing based on key fields significantly enhances the speed and ease of invoice retrieval. Furthermore, comprehensive visibility reporting captures essential analytics, providing insights into performance metrics and further refining the accuracy of data extraction.
