Document and File Scanning | Patterson Pope

Accounts Payable

Document scanning expedites processing and improves visibility.

Money makes the world go around. But there's no movement if invoices are stuck in paper purgatory. Government offices know too well the challenge of process bottlenecks or vanishing critical information. Manual processes take time. Paper takes up valuable real estate. And your people are overwhelmed trying to simplify, streamline and organize all the incoming invoices. Automating the invoice management process can improve accounts payable (AP) throughput while reducing the average cost per invoice.

With AP automation you'll see:

  • Fewer errors and greater data quality
  • Improved efficiency with the invoice processing cycle powered by AI & Machine Learning
  • Reduced human interaction with each invoice
  • Greater accountability with easy, yet secure access to electronic data
