Automated End-to-End Invoice Processing with RPA and AI – in the cloud

Every year, billions of invoices are generated and exchanged between supplier and buyer organizations. Information from these invoices needs to be read and processed quickly and efficiently and directly impacts most company’s bottom line.

Traditionally, organizations spend countless hours manually extracting the information and feeding that information into systems of records. The current way of operations results in knowledge workers performing mundane tasks such as data entry when they should be performing more value-added tasks. Manual processing also introduces costly errors into the workflow and adds additional complexity with manual approval workflows.

Automated End-to-End Invoice Processing with RPA and AI – in the cloud

A typical manual invoice process works as follows:

01

Documents are received via email or some form of a mail room.

02

Invoices are downloaded and classified based on the different vendor types.

03

Relevant data from invoices such as invoice number, supplier info, amount and others are retrieved and entered into a system of record such as an ERP system.

04

This data is then reconciled with a purchase order (PO) and then routed for approval if it passes validation.

The problem with Manual Processes:

Manual data entry errors by workers

Inability to efficiently manage the data

Lack of visibility to track Accounts Payable (AP) processes

Key information can be missed / not captured

Resolving issues takes time, slowing down processes

At a time when maintaining the bottom line is critical, issuing accurate payments faster with fewer resources is key.

AI and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) empower accounts payable teams to automate invoice processing to beat the deadline, ensure accuracy, and achieve up to 80% cost savings.

AI-powered bots can:

Overcome challenges of extracting unstructured data from myriad invoice formats
Automate invoice workflows and increase straight-through processing rates
Identify discrepancies and flag exceptions for faster resolution
Process invoices in the cloud seamlessly with no setup required

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is the most effective way to automate any procure-to-pay process. It’s easy to deploy, it offers the highest ROI, and when combined with AI, it can even process unstructured data.
