Automate office tasks

Supplier invoices, ready for accounting

Supplier invoices are read, checked, and assigned to the right job. You only clear up what's open and approve the handover.

Who it's for
Trades businesses, agencies, and service providers with lots of supplier invoices, where often only one person knows what an invoice was for.

Where things stand

How it often runs today

Invoices arrive by email, as PDFs, or on paper that someone scans. For each one, the supplier, invoice number, and amounts get typed in. Often only the person who ordered knows what the materials or service were for, so someone asks in the chat. Before the handover to accounting or the tax advisor, someone gathers whatever is still missing.

Where it gets stuck day to day

  1. Invoice details are typed in by hand
  2. Often only one person knows what an invoice was for
  3. Questions get lost in the chat
  • Collect invoices from the inbox (between Email inbox and you)
  • Open and sort scans (between Scan folder and you)
  • Type in invoice details (between you and Accounting software; point 1 above)
  • Look up supplier and bank details (between you and Supplier list)
  • Ask what the invoice was for (between you and Team chat; point 2 above)
  • Copy chat answers over (between Team chat and Accounting software; point 3 above)
  • Gather documents for the handover (between Scan folder and Accounting software)

The workflow

Step by step

This is how the workflow can look once it is set up: six steps, one of them yours.

Step 1 – Trigger: An invoice arrives

By email or as a scan: every invoice lands in one list with its original, sender, and date received. Several invoices in one file are split up.

  • Inbox
  • Scan folder

Instead of: Collect invoices from the inbox, Open and sort scans

Step 2 – AI · optional: The invoice details are read

Supplier, invoice number, date, amounts, and due date are read. E-invoices provide these directly; AI can help with PDFs and scans. Uncertain fields are flagged, not guessed.

  • E-invoice
  • PDF
  • Scan

Instead of: Type in invoice details

Step 3 – Automatic: The invoice is checked

Totals, required details, and possible duplicates are checked, and the supplier is matched against your supplier list. If the bank details differ, the invoice goes for review.

  • Supplier list
  • Accounting

Instead of: Look up supplier and bank details

Step 4 – Automatic: The question goes to the right person

If it's unclear which job or cost center carries the cost, the person who ordered gets a specific question with the invoice attached. The answer goes straight to the invoice.

  • Team chat

Instead of: Ask what the invoice was for, Copy chat answers over

Step 5 – You decide: You approve the invoices

You see which invoices are ready and why others are still waiting, and approve the finished ones. Approval doesn't mean payment; you pay as before.

  • Accounting

Step 6 – Result: Handover to accounting or your tax advisor

Approved invoices go to accounting with their original and assignment. An overview shows what has been handed over and what's still open.

Instead of: Gather documents for the handover

What changes

The same programs, less manual work

Your programs stay. The workflow handles the work in between, and you step in where your decision is needed.

Today: You are the link between five programs.With automation: Your programs are connected. You approve.

  1. Before: Typing invoice details in by hand

    With the workflow: The details come from the invoice itself

  2. Before: Asking around the team what an invoice was for

    With the workflow: A specific question goes to the person who ordered

  3. Before: Duplicate invoices are spotted late

    With the workflow: Possible duplicates are flagged before the handover

  4. Before: Gathering documents for the handover

    With the workflow: Every invoice goes out with its original and assignment
