[vc_row pix_particles_check=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]Approvals, accounting, and purchasing are three of the most labor-intensive and cumbersome responsibilities fulfilled by the account’s sections of any B2B business. Any additional duty and task given to professionals working in these departments will only add to the burden and result in decreased efficiency. Handling invoices manually certainly tops them all.
Supplier invoicing is an important part of the B2B workflow. It is estimated that the influx of supplier invoices will exponentially increase in the coming years, given that businesses are looking to increase their collaborative endeavors for diversifying their portfolios.

For those who are late to join the party, delays, frauds, duplicity, and souring of business relationships will be inevitable.

KlearStack’s artificial intelligence based optical character recognition technology helps in eliminating repetitive and slow processes like manual data entry from invoices onto computer databases by digitizing all sorts of invoices, bills, etc. We help in creating a streamlined workflow for invoice processing, that requires minimal human intervention only.
How Does KlearStack Solution Work To Automate Supplier Invoice Processing?
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Budget managers, financial controllers, supplier’s point of contact, etc. are some of the key stakeholders involved in the dispatch, receiving, and processing of invoices. In the traditional workflow, the supplier office dispatched invoices that were collected and matched with the purchase order details.
Once the verification was done, the invoice was sent to the budget manager’s office where a set of approvals was to be granted. The problem with this workflow is that firstly, any delay at a single point would automatically hamper the whole workflow.
Secondly, since the verification and validation of details requires a lot of diligence when being done manually, there are tons of approvals needed, especially when the amount to be sentient is quite large.
An advanced automation solution like KlearStack helps in automating the entire bulk invoice processing workflow, and improving its efficiency by decreasing the number of steps in the whole operation.
Our optical character recognition software primarily works to improve outcomes for managing invoices in the first place. This is done by digitizing every type of invoice, irrespective of its format, and uploading essential details on the company’s ERP Systems. Thus, saving time that was earlier wasted in manually handling the data when the invoices were received.
By leveraging the knowledge of artificial intelligence and machine learning, our OCR solution is also able to match the invoice details with the purchase order information. Further, matching the accounts receivable with the accounts payable can also be automated in the same way.
Lastly, all thanks to the same set of advanced technologies, a workflow can be created where without mandatory authentication digital payment transfers cannot be initiated. The authentication of the invoice details can be automated easily with machine learning models. Any discrepancies and risks of fraudulent activities will be flagged promptly as well.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
