INVOICE VALIDATION SOLUTION
If you still validate invoices by sending paper documents from one department or employee to another, manually enter data into various records and keep invoices in binders, you are likely to spend more time validating invoices than your competitors.
This comprehensive solution helps you simplify the management, distribution, and exchange of information within the company, facilitate the search for related documents such as purchase requisitions, purchase orders and contracts, increase transparency and business efficiency, and ensure consistent and secure e-storage of documents.

E-STORAGE
The business solution for invoice validation supports the import and capture, multi-level validation and appropriate storage of supplier invoices regardless of their source format – paper or electronic.
Receive invoices
In the first step, supplier invoices received by regular or electronic mail and e-invoices are captured. Paper-based invoices are labelled with a bar code and scanned using dedicated equipment to extract the needed data to record the invoice in the ERP. You can handle invoice data scanning and capture yourself or let us do it for you.
Verify invoice correctness
The invoice is then received by validators who can verify the invoice simultaneously. The number of validation levels is managed through business rules on the basis of captured invoice data. The validators can approve the invoice, return it to recording upon detecting an error, or reject it with an explanation (the reject notice is created automatically from a preset template and invoice metadata). The task is completed when the invoice is confirmed by all the validators.
Book accounts payable in the ERP
The validation and any changes to the invoice metadata are followed by the posting of the invoice in your ERP system (the business solution is linked to your ERP to avoid manual entries or keeping of data at multiple locations and enable users to track invoices in both systems).
E-storage
The certified InDoc EDGE digital data storage system guarantees the completeness and authenticity of preserved documents as well as fully traceable data access available only to authorized users.
BENEFITS OF THE BUSINESS SOLUTION
Improved transparency
In every moment you will know exactly with whom and in what stage of the validation process the invoice is, and traceability will open up further process optimization options.
Fewer mistakes
Supplier invoices that contain an error, e.g. a missing VAT number, can be detected at the start of the process and not in the phase of posting the accounts payable in the ERP.
Higher efficiency
Better accessibility of invoices and related documents to all stakeholders improves the efficiency of the invoice validation system.
Invoice validation operates
on the InDoc EDGE platform.
