The SAP solution for Accounts Payable automation allows users to centrally view and process all types of incoming invoices. Additionally, it enables users to handle exceptions directly via workflows. Users can also check the invoice-processing status or workflow history. Moreover, they can recall or restart workflows and reverse false documents.
Automatically validate invoice data
The system validates captured invoice data upon entry utilizing our AI engines, using SAP master data and transactional data, such as vendor master data and purchase orders. Additionally, it automatically determines the information required for invoice posting, like SAP vendor number, tax codes, goods receipt, and it will perform a duplicate check, using advanced search algorithms and logic. When necessary, you can utilize automatic line item matching with two or three-way matching capabilities.
Once the data is complete and error-free, the system attempts automatic posting through standard SAP functionality, ensuring a no-touch flow for these documents. Meanwhile, an AP clerk can still correct documents using intuitive and simple interfaces, with access to all invoice data for full control.
Optimize your Accounts Payable (AP) process within SAP with advanced process automation, intelligent workflows, and robust analytics.
Integrated legal archive
Extend your SAP environment with an SAP Archive Link-compatible legal archive. This digital archive allows you to manage and store all incoming documents with their data in a structured environment. Additionally, this archive complies with European legislation for the legal archiving of invoices.
