AP Essentials: Cloud-based vendor invoice management
Automatically capture, analyze, validate and approve invoices from any source with AP Essentials.
Invoice automation in the cloud
Tungsten AP Essentials™ is a world class accounts payable solution that automates the capture and validation of invoices from any source, in any format. Supplier invoices typically arrive in paper, PDF or myriad electronic formats delivered through postal services, emails, EDI or Internet portals. It doesn’t matter. AP Essentials enables AP teams to swiftly capture, codify and route invoices seamlessly, securely and consistently.
AP Essentials uses proprietary optical character recognition (OCR) technology with impressive accuracy. The extracted data is then validated, classified, and routed for approval, enabling organizations to automate the invoice processing workflow. AP Essentials integrates with existing financial systems to provide a seamless end-to-end process, reducing manual data entry and increasing efficiency.
