Financial Process Automation

From manual work to financial control.

Collections Automation

Manual collections consume time and leave amounts unpaid, with reminders that depend on the team's availability.

What we automate
  • Automatic sequence of payment reminders, with escalation configurable over time
  • Escalation by channel and level: email, SMS and WhatsApp, up to a collections manager or legal action
  • Payment reference and outstanding amount included in every communication
  • Exception rules per client, tier, amount or period (e.g. pauses during company holidays)
  • Status record of every notification (sent, delivered, answered) and debt history

Fewer overdue balances and better cash flow.

Supplier Invoice Processing

Entering supplier invoices by hand is slow, error-prone and delays the whole payment cycle.

What we automate
  • Invoice collection by email, upload or cloud repository
  • Automatic reading of invoices, credit notes and receipts, extracting supplier, dates and line items
  • Automatic matching with delivery notes and purchase orders
  • Accounting entry (account and VAT per item) with a simulation of the impact on the current account before validating
  • Learning per supplier: every operator correction improves the next recognition
  • Human validation only where needed, with the hold reason flagged

Less manual work and a faster payment cycle.

Bank Reconciliation

Manually matching bank statements with invoices and credit notes is slow, and it is where discrepancies and unidentified payments slip through.

What we automate
  • Automatic statement retrieval from several sources (open banking, file or bank API)
  • Smart matching between each transaction and the customer's documents in the ERP, with priority and ageing rules
  • Automatic customer identification from the transaction description
  • Validation by the customer, by email, when the transaction is not conclusive
  • Management of open cases, with clear statuses (to reconcile, partial, ERP error)
  • Cross-validation between home banking, statement and ERP, with no discrepancies

What took days now takes minutes, with a complete audit trail.

Credit Notes and Direct Debits

Issuing credit notes and handling returned direct debits manually causes delays and a lack of control over repeated incidents.

What we automate
  • Automatic issuing and sending of credit notes, with a record of the customer's acceptance
  • Stamped receipt confirmation (date, customer and email) when the note is downloaded
  • Processing of direct debits returned by the bank, with automatic generation of the associated invoice
  • Automatic actions for repeated incidents: retry, debit cancellation or alert to the account manager
  • Exception rules per client, amount or invoice (e.g. client in negotiation, invoice in dispute)

Credit and debit processes handled with clear rules.
