Find out what Purchase Automation is all about in Enterpryze, the benefits and who it is for.
Introduction
Enterpryze enables you to scan your Purchase Invoices directly into Enterpryze. Right now you are spending time manually inputting your invoices from your Suppliers into your Accounting system. This means invoices could be added in error and also you need to wait more time for the relevant approvers to confirm the invoices are ok to be added in the first place. With Enterpryze you can let us take over these time consuming tasks and thus improving efficiency, reducing human errors and costs while keeping key relationships with your Suppliers.
What is Enterpryze?

What is Purchase Automation?
It is the ability to scan a Purchase Invoice, parse it via OCR and create a resulting 'pending invoice' within Enterpryze. This is fully integrated and automatic through email.
How does Purchase Automation work in Enterpryze?
Very simply the admin user will have settings to create rules around email addresses to accept PDF’s from email. You can also save the PDF’s and manually upload to Purchasing through the new Invoice Automation button. The user can then Approve, Reject, Edit these pending Invoices. Invoices with errors will also be shown where a user can edit to correct them. Through the Edit option the user can also match the Invoices to Open Purchase orders or Deliveries to complete the Purchase cycle.
The great thing is that Enterpryze will learn from each scan with machine learning around the Items and Supplier details that you scan so it will recognise them the next time round.
