The Intelligent OCR solution takes a PDF or multiple page PDF document invoice sent directly from a supplier and turns the information into data.

The ASAP automation solution streamlines all of an organization’s business flows, invoices, contracts, purchase orders and employee expenses. It’s a software service in the cloud that allows managers to code and approve supplier invoices quickly, boosting efficiency and providing  executives with more visibility into where their payables stand at any time, 24/7.

Most OCR invoice software on the market today can be relied upon to locate data on an invoice and enter it into the appropriate field according to a user’s preferences. Even though this is a step up in the automation of invoice capture, it is still time consuming to go through every invoice that needs to be scanned and designate the proper placement of the data.

Intelligent OCR uses context to locate the required data, and compensates for poor quality images and misspellings, matching the data against internal sources. While this feature is available in some products, Intelligent OCR allows you to search most typical values from any document using a built-in Intelli-Tag database.

This additional feature allows you speed up your data capture applications without document templates. As well, you can create and/or customize your own Intelli-Tag database to improve your documents recognition or adapt to specific applications.

Intelligent OCR is capable of automatically and intuitively detecting/learning unique vendor invoices based on their respective layouts, allowing the scanning and/or importing of data from emailed or paper invoices with more efficiency. Intelligent OCR also intuitively performs field mapping and data collection.

• Scans paper invoices (from your browser), capturing header and line item invoice fields
• Easy-to-use and intuitive, browser-based interface
• Gets high marks for ease of use and an intuitive interface
• 95% accuracy rates
• Integrates seamlessly with your ERP

Intelligent OCR captures invoice data from electronic document formats such as PDF, XML, EDI, Word, TIFF, JPG, HTML and more. Our data capture service is free for suppliers and they incur no cost to send invoices to your Accounts Payable system. The process is very straightforward – they simply send their invoices to a designated email account.

E-invoicing has been steadily growing worldwide over the last few years, and it looks like its growth could accelerate even further this year with the European Union looking to make e-invoicing mandatory for government procurement. The U.S Government has also mandated e-invoicing for government departments in order to lower processing costs and save an expected $450m.

According to research from e-invoicing consultancy and market analyst Billentis, a company can save up to nearly 80% by implementing automated invoicing processes.

But cost reduction is not the only reason why more and more governments and businesses are switching from paper to electronic invoicing. E-invoicing helps organisations to improve and streamline their financial operations, which is vital in today’s fast-paced and international business environment. It also makes it easier for them to track invoices, which prevents the risks of fraud and of invoices going missing.

E-invoicing technology enables faster, easier and safer payments between organisations, while achieving significant cost savings. With more and more companies and government departments set to adopt the technology, this will create greater collaboration between international business partners and more efficient international commerce.
