One single platform for direct and indirect Procure-to-Pay
Invoices typically come in through a variety of channels and in various formats. The receiving end seeks automation but has to compromise with different workarounds and exception handling since their solution is primarily designed to improve traditional paper invoice handling and streamline payment reconciliation.
Adopt a broader perspective, and integrate AI.
Many organizations tend to forget that a procure-to-pay improvement project is not a finance project, with the main focus on invoice documents and accounts payable automation. A true transformation requires procurement automation software that allows all stakeholders who touch the process to be involved and equally heard. The procurement and receiving scenarios should be an equally important part of the optimization scope in order to reach a high degree of automated invoice matching and no-touch processing.
Improving the end-to-end procurement process will drastically increase invoice data quality, but still, you will have those exceptions that require manual intervention. The majority of these tasks are tedious and repetitive, which is something we can apply machine learning to. As an example, AI can help with automated invoice coding, matching the corresponding PO-line items with the invoice content. Or it can learn how new and infrequent vendor invoices are processed and enable increasing procurement process automation.
"From an ordering perspective, I can say, without regrets, that we are really making big steps with Quyntess & Tradeshift. We have reached the milestone that we can say, we are exchanging purchase orders, purchase order confirmations, technical data packages, and e-invoices, at least with the first set of pilot suppliers."

One-size-fits-all procure to pay solutions do exist.
Our procure to pay software covers 100% of your invoices, regardless of how they come in, in which format they are sent and where they originate from. We offer a wide range of invoice flip capabilities in order to maximise invoices with pre-populated high-quality data. Invoices that still do not meet the minimum requirements are automatically presented back to the issuing party for completion or correction.
A crucial aspect is providing help and guidance to suppliers when they create an invoice. Stimulate the issuing of true electronic invoices, instead of mimicking a digital process through scanning and capturing, to gain the best P2P software results.
In the end, suppliers will largely benefit from this renewed way of working. Invoice statuses will not have to be collected any more through frequent customer enquiries, and since invoice data quality has severely gone up, invoices will be paid on time. Even quick payment options, automated payment solutions and other supply chain finance services can be unlocked to flexibly meet cash needs.
