Accounts Payable Automation
Automate AP Invoice Processing in Microsoft Dynamics 365 with Axtension
Invoice processing is a tedious process and is often a productivity bottleneck as a business grows. Without an automation solution in place, the accounts payable team struggles to keep pace with the steady stream of paperwork and information-gathering necessary for invoice settlement.
The latest release of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance has brought significant improvements to the Accounts Payable module, especially with the introduction of its Optical Character Recognition feature, known as Invoice Capture. This feature transforms the Accounts Payable module into a comprehensive solution for handling invoices. With Invoice Capture, organizations can seamlessly receive invoices, extract critical data, and initiate appropriate processes using Pending Vendor Invoices or Invoice Journals.
Axtension and Dynamics 365 is A Powerful Combination
Axtension® Invoice Processing stands out as the sole certified and fully embedded AP Automation solution that not only enhances but also fully integrates with Dynamics 365’s latest features, including the Electronic Invoicing microservice and the Landed Cost module. With Microsoft’s Invoice Capture, Axtension® Invoice Processing can now utilize this additional OCR source, ensuring that all invoices, irrespective of their origin, are processed efficiently within Microsoft Dynamics 365. This integration allows companies to leverage the full range of automation capabilities offered.
An enterprise organisation that operates globally recently shared:
‘’The latest version of Axtension® Invoice Processing on top of Dynamics 365 offers a significant boost compared to what we were previously capable of achieving. When we initially set out to optimize the process for dealing with all supplier invoices, we were able to process around 40.000 invoices on a yearly basis and while that is much more than we could process without Axtension® Invoice Processing, still a considerable number of invoices required exception handling because they originate from different sources outside of Axtension® Invoice Processing. Nowadays we manage a multitude of different types of invoices including electronic invoices as well as non-PO invoices, of which the latter poses the most demanding challenges. With the latest improvements of Axtension® Invoice Processing, there is a lot more flexibility, automation and streamlining added regardless of what type of invoice or source applies. We made a significant jump in dealing with complex invoices – no longer causing bottlenecks for our departments and increasing our Invoice Automation’’.
