Financial self service page - Invoice Approval
With the advent of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) AP departments now receive invoices at the speed of light. Once the invoices arrive they still can't be paid without proper approval. Manual approvals are labor intensive, slow, and prone to error.
With the Invoice Approval and Routing solution invoices can be routed electronically to the proper departments for approvals. The solution also supports multiple levels of approvals based upon pre-defined approval amounts. If invoices are not approved in a time frame that you set, then the approver will receive an email reminder. Even the manager will receive notification if the approver does not respond. Approvers can reassign approval responsibility when they are due to be out of the office.
Once approved the invoice will be automatically released in the AP system for normal payment and check processing. All of these features ensure a faster approval process without human intervention. A faster approval process provides opportunities for early payment discounts with your vendors and significant savings to your organization.
JSA2 Invoice Approval module includes:
- Expedite the processing of invoices to take advantage of early payment discounts.
- Reduce the labor associated with hand coding and routing invoices to departments throughout your organization for approval.
- Control the flow of invoices based upon rules that you define.
- Remind approvers and their managers that you are waiting for invoices.
- Eliminate paper costs by reducing the number of invoices that must be printed or copied for approval.
