We already told you how we think e-invoicing will become the new standard in finance. It will help organizations streamline their billing processes, and we see that more governments are making e-invoicing mandatory in the long run. At the same time, we see companies still billing in ‘the old-fashioned way.’ How do you combine those two streams of invoicing?
Many vendors of so-called e-delivery platforms and networks have entered the market in a short period. When we talk about e-delivery, we mean all possible electronic data flows—for instance, EDI messages, XML- and PDF documents. Every platform uses its data formats to process these flows. So, vendors generally want their clients to connect to their network that uses that specific format. That is fair, of course, but if a supplier of yours uses one vendor’s network to send you e-invoices, and your customers use another one, that would mean that you have to be connected to both networks. That can be quite costly, not to mention that it would require a lot of manual work to convert the different file formats to communicate with your customers and suppliers.
The link between customers, suppliers, and you
Our motto at Dynatos is simple: where possible, we want to automate or robotize your processes. In the last couple of years, we have been researching whether it could also ease these billing processes. Our answer is Routty, an E-delivery platform for handling incoming and outgoing invoices and managing the processes.
What is the difference between vendors like Basware, SAP Ariba, and the Tungsten Network? Routty is not running as a vendor network but connects to existing networks. It is the independent link between the different networks and platforms that your customers and suppliers use. Routty integrates with all existing networks and can process all other file formats. Invoices can be sent and received via the preferential channels of your trading partners, whether they are invoices via e-mail, FTP, PEPPOL, or any other platform or network. You can even send your invoices to a printing partner with Routty so they can be printed and sent by regular mail. Besides that, Routty offers archive solutions – both on-premise and in the cloud – that comply with current rules and regulations.
Routty and your systems
As mentioned before, Routty is an independent software solution for e-invoicing. This means its configuration can be tailored to your specific requirements and wishes. It also means that Routty can easily integrate with your existing ERP systems, making it easier to automate related processes as well. Together with you, Dynatos will look at the best solutions for your organization and facilitate a smooth integration between Routty and your systems and processes.
