When looking for a solution to receive purchase invoices for the accounts payable, focus on the following:
One flow for all received invoices: Make sure you get all your e-invoices, PDFs and paper invoices into your workflow system in a single format to enable further processing.
Real-time visibility: Ensure full transparency to your invoice flow with real-time monitoring to have clarity on where your invoices are in the approval process.
Ensure compliance: Meet global and local regulations, such as the EU standard EN 16931, Peppol, and national formats when needed.
Connect to all your suppliers: Select a network operator that securely connects you to all suppliers, from big global ones to the small local businesses.
Expand your e-invoice ratio: Ultimately, you’ll want to receive more as e-invoices and less as PDFs and paper, because it’s cheaper, faster, and more accurate. For this, there are multiple effective methods.
