    How does it work?

    • An accounts payable system needs data to run - and the first step is to gather invoices to process.  Typically, these invoices arrive in paper form by mail, but they can also be sourced from email inboxes, faxes, or other configured electronic inputs.
    • Next, invoice data is introduced into the Intelligent Capture system by scanning paper documents or importing electronic files into a processing queue.
    • Once documents exist as digital images in the queue, their information is analyzed and business-critical information such as names, account numbers, and dollar amounts are extracted and digitized.
    • This digital information is then exported to a customized workflow where it is processed and is routed to the appropriate operators if needed.  All of this happens automatically, and once manual steps (such as a management approval) are completed the document continues on to its next step with no additional action required on the operator's part.
    • Once invoice processing is complete and a payment authorized, the scanned invoice image as well as the information about its transaction are exported to a storage repository.  Here, it can be stored for compliance or can be easily pulled up by operators for customer service, management, or training needs.
