A reviewed record is ready for finance
The opportunity
What holds up invoice processing
Invoices arrive in different formats and inboxes. Re-keying details and chasing missing information slows down the finance team.
How it works
From incoming invoice to a reviewed record
The exact systems and steps are tailored to your team. This example shows a starting point for the conversation.
- 01
Collect documents
Gather incoming invoices from agreed inboxes or upload locations and keep the original file.
- 02
Extract and validate
Read key fields, check for missing information and compare them against your business rules.
- 03
Review exceptions
Flag uncertain values, potential duplicates and invoices that need the right approver.
- 04
Prepare the record
Send approved information to the finance system and retain a trace of the review.
People stay in control.
Finance staff review exceptions and approve payments. The workflow does not make payment decisions on its own.
What you can measure.
- Processing time per invoice
- Invoices requiring manual correction
- Time spent chasing missing information
