Automate with SAP Vim by OpenText
In the race towards digitalization in order to increase competitiveness, some projects integrating artificial intelligence are easier to implement than others.
The dematerialization of documents and the automation of the process associated with invoices concern all companies. Â
There are several factors involved in slowing down the processing of invoices and prompting the switch to digitization:
- Manual invoice management
- Invoice approval process
- Incorrect or incomplete invoices
- Costs associated with printing and mailing invoices
- Penalties for not paying on time
