January 2007 - Automated Accounts-Payable Systems Cost 68% to 76% Less Than Manual Operations - Recent Aberdeen research (December 2006 - Accounts Payable: Strategies for Success) has discovered that electronic invoices cost between 68% - 76% less to process than paper-based invoices.
The research indicated that the average cost of manually processing a supplier invoice could drop from over US$22 to less than US$13 per invoice through automated processing.
iPOS eProcurement for Infor SunSystems incorporates automated supplier invoice processing as standard functionality. Inbound supplier invoices can be matched against outstanding purchase orders with exceptions being tracked for administrator review or rejection. With appropriate background controls iPOS can also accept invoices without purchase order references and direct these through an extensive approval workflow.
