The company decided to review its invoice management process when a change to the finance team decreased its human resources.

They had been using a traditional admin approach, with manual invoices and interlinked through, Xero, their enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. This method created a time-consuming task for a relatively simple job.

Benefits of automated invoice management

Faced with an increased administrative burden, they started to look for a better way for the finance team to manage the invoice supplier process. They selected was Webexpenses Invoice Processing as their invoice solution.

Claire Stevenson, Finance Manager at SHE Software, stated:

“Webexpenses Invoice Processing frees up the finance team’s time. It’s great that we can see an audit trail of all supplier spend, approved invoices – plus, it’s paper-free which is great!

“We’re keen to now remove the manual matching of POs to their invoices – we can do this with the PO feature that’s available within the system – this will save us even more time for our finance team.”

Webexpenses Invoice Processing eliminates up to 90% of manual accounts payable processes. How? Its optical character recognition (OCR) automatically converts incoming invoices into a digital format.

The, automated matching of POs helps streamline the approvals process. Plus, it acts as a safeguard against the risks of errors and fraud. In addition, full integration with Xero delivers a seamless flow of financial data.
