Improving Efficiency by Automating Accounts Payable Processes for Logistics Organization

Improving Efficiency by Automating Accounts Payable Processes for Logistics Organization

A logistics organization sought a better solution to a time-consuming accounts payable process. Their team utilizes a shared inbox to intake all vendor invoices. The accounts payable team sorts the emails and forwards the invoices to the responsible party. That person detaches the invoice from the email and uploads it into a document repository. Then, the invoice document is opened and entered into the accounting system to match with a purchase order for payment processing. Their team turned to UDig for a better solution to improve this mundane, repeatable operational business process through intelligent automation.

How We Went from Ideas to Impact

  • The Idea

    Over 5,000 incoming vendor invoices processed monthly by the accounts payable team through a shared inbox are time-consuming, prone to errors, and slow to respond to vendor partners.  

  • The Process

    Build a self-maintainable automation platform to manage and process incoming invoices, freeing the accounts payable team to focus on more fulfilling work.

  • The Impact

    The invoice automation saves the accounts payable team 5 minutes per invoice (3,083 hours per year), freeing up 30% of their time to focus on more value-add tasks.
