Benefits

  • Save
    Time & Money

    Save valuable time on manual data entry and validation which can be both time-consuming and costly. Automated invoice processing can speed up payment processing times and reduce the time spent on the phone to suppliers chasing payment.

  • Maximised
    Storage Space

    Invoices no longer need to be stored physically on-site, saving storage costs and giving your business easy digital access to key invoice information.

  • Elimination of Data Entry Errors

    A major drawback of manual data entry is the risk of human error causing overpayments or duplicated payments. Implementing an automated process increases accuracy and eliminates time spent correcting simple keystroke mistakes and costly payment errors.

  • Prompt Payment

    Keeping your company up to date with payments is crucial. Inefficient workflows, including manual data entry, can cause delays in managing outstanding invoices. Automating the extraction of key document information into a centralised digital format improves payment processing speed and efficiency.

  • Fast Retrieval

    Index your digital invoices by key fields such as invoice number, supplier name, or reference, and easily search from your computer. Access your invoices flexibly from any location.

  • Improve Processing Speed and Monitor Your Outputs

    Intelligent invoice capture accelerates invoice processing, helps identify bottlenecks in your workflow, and generates detailed reports and statistics to monitor and continuously enhance your business efficiency.
