EBS AP Automation: Streamline Payables with IntelliChief

How It Works: A Closer Look at the Automation Flow

IntelliChief’s EBS AP automation mirrors your business logic and adapts to your Oracle ERP environment. Here’s how the process unfolds:

1. Document Ingestion
   • Intelligent Capture converts invoices from any format (paper, email, EDI, portal download) into structured, usable data.
2. Data Validation & Matching
   • 2-way, 3-way, or 4-way matching logic is applied automatically.
   • Data is validated against Oracle EBS in real-time — including POs, receipts, and vendor records.
3. Exception Handling
   • Exceptions are flagged and routed through configurable workflows for resolution.
   • You define the rules; IntelliChief enforces them.
4. GL Coding & Voucher Creation
   • IntelliChief auto-codes non-PO invoices and vouchers them directly into Oracle EBS.
   • Manual journal entries become a thing of the past.
5. Audit Trail & Reporting
   • Every touchpoint is tracked and logged, with complete visibility for audits, month-end close, and vendor inquiries.

Why Accounts Payable Automation Is a Strategic Investment

While saving money and time is a given, Accounts Payable Automation delivers much broader enterprise value, especially for Oracle EBS customers:

• Improved Supplier Relationships
  Faster processing and fewer payment delays enhance credibility and open up more opportunities for early-pay discounts.
• Tighter Controls & Reduced Risk
  Automation enforces policies consistently and prevents fraud, duplicate payments, and manual entry errors.
• Accelerated Month-End Close
  With intelligent routing, auto-coding, and system validation, finance teams gain real-time data access for faster reconciliations.
• Audit-Readiness by Default
  Every action is recorded and reportable — no more chasing paper trails or reconciling inboxes.
