The quantity of invoices a person can handle within an hour depends on several variables, such as the complexity of each invoice, familiarity with the process, and available tools. However, comparing manual and automated approaches provides insights into how technology can enhance efficiency.
Manual Processing: Assuming an individual can efficiently deal with primary invoice entries and has access to necessary information, they may be able to manage around 10 to 15 invoices per hour.
Automated Solutions: Depending on the system s capabilities and configuration, some vendors claim their solutions can handle between 250 to 800 invoices every hour. Even conservative estimates put the average at around 50 to 100 invoices per hour for advanced AP automation solutions.
