Intelligent Document Processing

Process external documents automatically from receipt through to inspection and posting

Automation of the entire document processing chain

Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) is the clever combination of modern software applications from document management systems (DMS), robotic process automation (RDP) and artificial intelligence (AI). The interaction of these different solutions can automate and accelerate whole process chains right up to document processing in its entirety.

In just a few minutes after being received, new external documents are transformed into fully filled out SAP drafts which are available to employees in Accounting for them to check and post or forward on in accordance with approval procedures. Solutions that are integrated into SAP Business One such as cks.DIGITAL 4.0 and cks.RUN can do this and more.

Minimise the risk of a bottleneck in document processing

Your business receives a constant stream new invoices, delivery notes, forms, e-mails etc. Most of these involve business partners who want quick responses to their concerns. Intelligent document processing improves average processing times and enables 24/7 processing of incoming documents.

On-premise processing of your mail and confidential information

Many providers of intelligent document processing use cloud-based solutions. Confidential information such as purchase prices and customer addresses is therefore extracted, re-structured and then re-imported into your business. An integrated solution processes this sensitive data on your own servers and within your network.

For best results, connect additional information from SAP Business One

Cloud solutions for intelligent document processing are connected to the front of the ERP system and use interfaces to return results at the end of the process. A solution that is integrated into SAP Business One can fall back on additional data such as article and business partner master data and base documents. This additional information allows you to exploit the full potential of intelligent document processing.
