Invoice Processing Software: A Complete Guide and Steps
by Mynd Solution Mynd IntegratedInvoice
processing software is a part of the
parent accounting automation software that is used by accounting professionals
for a vast range of functions in the accounts department. An invoice processing software comprises of 6 parts. First is the collection of
invoices from vendors or associates. The invoice can be hard copy, like
printouts or fax, or soft copy like email, digital document, etc. The second is
getting the invoice registered. It can be done by preparing the invoice for
approval or preparing it to get updated. The third step is to send the invoice
to departments within the organisation that are authorised to review it and
make a decision.The fourth step is to assign the invoice a specific status.
Either the invoice will be approved or it will be rejected. This step has to be
done before the invoice is sent to the payment department. Fifth is sending the
approved series of invoices to the payment department. In this stage, the
payment is released. In the sixth step, the paid invoices are archived. Automated invoice
processing software helps
save paid invoices in a digital cabinet. This makes searching for and accessing
the already-paid invoices extremely easy.
In the logistics industry, invoice processing
software is widely used. MYND’s AI- enabled LMS software is designed to
optimize the processes involved in various logistical operations. Hence, this
software finds extensive application in organisations that offer onshore and
offshore logistic services. Customers are charged for route planning,
warehousing, transportation, and distribution, as well as the collection of
goods from pickup locations and delivery to their final destination. The entire
range of services generates significant cost implications. A logistics
organisation adds up all the costs as well as profit on the invoice. An
automated invoice management software will help organisations save time and
effort in generating the invoice, creating customised billing annexures,
scrutinising the invoice, getting the invoice approved from concerned
departments, sending the invoice to vendors and getting affirmation for the
same from the vendor, tracking payment from the vendor, and sending
confirmation upon receiving payment. For exceptional cases during operations
that require extra layers of approval and tracking, a top-grade automated
solution service provider like MYND can customise software as per the business
model of the organization. At no point in time, the organisation have to switch
to the traditional paper and pen method for such cases, and anticipate a lack
of sync between the automated system and traditional bookkeeping. MYND’s world
class invoice management solutions are equipped to handle all challenges.
MYND's LMS software assists organisations in meeting challenges and addressing
payment-related issues at their core. A completely automated solution optimise
MTR (material transfer requests) that are forwarded from clients. Instead of
deploying a dedicated team for route selection, vehicle selection, and
transportation, organisations can use LMS to provide the best logistical
solutions to clients while quoting the lowest freight amount. Finance automation solutions prove to be extremely effective for management of
vendor, requisition of vehicle, transportation, tracking of vehicles, and
