What is Automated Email Import?
IntelliChief’s automated email import feature allows organizations to route documents directly from monitored inboxes into the IntelliChief platform—without any manual steps. Whether you’re handling customer purchase orders, vendor invoices, or employee-submitted forms, the platform automatically:
- Monitors one or multiple inboxes
- Extracts metadata from the email body and attachments
- Classifies the document type and indexes key information
- Routes content for validation and processing within IntelliChief
All of this happens in real time, creating a seamless handoff from email to your ERP.
A Component of Enterprise Business Process Automation
Email Import is not a standalone feature—it’s part of IntelliChief’s larger business process automation solution. While advanced workflow is one component of our broader business process automation solution, IntelliChief delivers:
- Touchless document handling with Intelligent Capture
- Straight-through processing (STP) for AP, AR, and Sales Orders
- ERP-integrated automation with native connections to SAP ECC, SAP S/4HANA, Oracle JD Edwards, Oracle EBS, and Infor
- Process analytics to track and optimize performance
By embedding Email Import within this platform, IntelliChief enables faster cycle times, improved accuracy, and greater return on automation investment.
Email and Document Management Software in Action
Here’s how one Global 2000 company used IntelliChief to streamline AP with email and document management software:
- They directed vendors to send invoices to a monitored inbox, improving submission consistency.
- IntelliChief’s Email Import module captured emails 24/7 and passed them to Intelligent Capture for automated extraction.
- Once indexed, documents were automatically matched against ERP data using RPA: PO verification, 2-way and 3-way matching, and GL code validation.
- No touchpoints were needed for 65%+ of documents—processed and approved without human involvement.
- All updates are synced in real time with their Oracle EBS environment.
The result: faster processing, 70% lower AP costs, and measurable ROI in under 12 months.
The Benefits of ERP Email Integration
When email automation integrates directly with your ERP, business gains include:
- No delays: Documents move instantly from inbox to processing
- No errors: Metadata is extracted and indexed automatically
- No compliance gaps: All activity is logged, audited, and retained
- No need to “scan” PDFs: Emails are parsed and filed digitally without physical steps
This is what makes IntelliChief different: Email automation that’s truly ERP email-ready.
Replace Manual Sorting with Intelligent Capture
Traditional methods rely on users opening emails, saving attachments, uploading them to a shared folder, and notifying accounting or procurement. That’s not scalable.
With IntelliChief:
- Emails are ingested and classified automatically
- Document types are detected and routed by business logic
- Intelligent Capture extracts key fields (invoice number, amount, PO number, etc.)
- Integration updates your ERP records without manual intervention
This approach not only saves time but also enforces process compliance and standardization.
Security, Compliance, and Governance
Email Import includes role-based access controls, encryption, and audit logs. This ensures your automation workflows are:
- Compliant with standards like SOX, ISO, and FDA 21 CFR Part 11
- Secure, with complete traceability from document ingestion to archival
- Consistent with standardized routing and approval chains
All email-to-document workflows are fully configurable and auditable.
