We’ve Seen It All

We’re eager to work with any company that can benefit from AP process automation, but we’ve had a lot of success with companies in the following categories.

DataServ - Manufacturing AP Automation Experts

Yes, we can automate your workflows to modernize, create efficiency, and speed up payments so you can take advantage of vendor discounts. But that’s not what makes us EXPERTS in Manufacturing AP! 

Normalize to Optimize   

DataServ is the authority on specificity and normalization. Our advanced logic and matching methodology allow us to put the invoice in the optimal position to successfully match accurately. We take a unique approach by starting with specific matching rules and then broadening them to match the tolerance of your ERP.

• Reduce the risk of fraud in accounting processes

• Systematically ensure that transactions are processed with consistent processes and controls

• Provide visibility into the process to support strategic planning and decisions

• Clear the noise that can impede automation - (extra spaces, dashes, etc.) 

• Normalize different units of measurement to increase automated matching potential
• Support for multiple PO types – our system distinguishes between different PO types (Services, MRO, Inventory)
  • Change how quantities and pricing are matched
• After completing an automated 3-way match in DataServ, the pertinent data is sent to your ERP for payment along with a link to the invoice image
• Automatically identify discrepancies and route exceptions to the appropriate staff member and location for processing

It’s these unique capabilities and our deep expertise that ultimately creates efficiency for AP teams in Manufacturing. Your once manual, labor-intensive process will become a paperless, centralized, and automated machine, where best practices are maximized and risks are minimized!

How DataServ Simplifies Wholesale & Distribution AP

Decentralization and direct shipping are the biggest challenges facing Wholesale & Distribution AP teams. But not those partnered with DataServ!

DataServ brings together vendor invoice, purchase order, and receipt data for multinational companies. Our Wholesale and Distribution expertise shines through our unique approach to exception management. We drive a high level of automation matches due to our deep understanding of distinct differentiators among each purchase type. Incorporating the following will help you achieve cost/transaction benchmarks:

• Collaborative Intelligence – We leverage the best of what Artificial Intelligence and Human Intelligence have to offer, to promote best practices and perpetual improvement
• Centralized Processing – All location, invoice, date, PO, and receipt data in one, easily accessible place
• Exception Management – Different approaches for automated exception routing, based on purchase type
  • Controls in place to maximize straight through processing
  • Prevent prematurely forcing unnecessary exceptions - I.e. Don't flag exceptions for invoices with goods yet to be received

Remove Invoicing Delays for Direct Ship Orders

DataServ’s Direct Ship Automation sends AP invoice data to your ERP to feed the “receipts” portion of the system, triggering AR invoice creation.

• Eliminate manual keying for AR to direct ship entry
• Decrease time to bill the client — shorten DSO times
• Reduce paper routing between AP and AR
