Accounts Payable Automation

Cutting Costs not Confidence

Pitney Bowes view (supported by many studies) is that paper based invoices will predominate for the next 10 years, and quite possibly never be totally eliminated. We have been making paper based systems more productive for the past 50 years and have applied this know how to develop the Pitney Bowes Automated Accounts Payable service.

Overview

The Pitney Bowes service uses a combination of processes and technologies that enable the conversion of paper invoices to an electronic form that rapidly and securely distribute this information within the Enterprises' Accounts Payable payment process.

The Accounts Payable Automation service comes in 3 discrete components, each delivering it's own benefits, however, if required, can integrate a Clients existing systems.

Invoice Capture, Extraction and Authentication

Pitney Bowes intercepts incoming invoices, (via PO Boxes, Redirection or on Client site processing). These are converted to a digital format and processed by state of the art capture and processing technology. Pitney Bowes then presents back accurate clean information, which is authenticated against the Clients ERP data.

Approval Workflow

The invoice data can be supplied directly to the Client, or to the PBMS managed Invoice Approval workflow solution. This can be supplied as a hosted service integrated to a clients ERP system or as a pre built SAP Business Workflow.

Invoice Archive

To access the images Pitney Bowes can load the images to an existing client archive or provide a hosted solution SAP Archive link that means you can view the images directly through your SAP application.
