The AP automation capabilities you’ve been waiting for

Automatic PO matching

Your PO-backed invoices go through automatic 2 or 3-way matching, leveraging invoice line items, ERP data and tolerance matching rules in real-time via SAP, Oracle and JDE.

Automatically post transactions for payment into the ERP system without the need for human intervention.

End-to-end visibility

Monitor payment processing in the ERP system and pull back the associated payment data to provide visibility from invoice receipt to payment complete with reports and dashboards.

Multiple input methods

Process e-invoices received via direct integration with Tungsten Network, and paper-based, emailed PDF and faxed invoices through intelligent capture OCR.

Exceptions are researched and resolved quickly using Tungsten Network-designed plug-ins. Oversee exceptions in real-time and automate the resolution of problems with flexible workflows.
