The Manufacturing Challenge

A manufacturing group was processing over 3,000 supplier invoices per month entirely manually: a team of six finance staff spending 60% of their time on data entry, matching, and approval chasing. Error rates were high and payment cycles were averaging 42 days, damaging supplier relationships.

Our AI & Automation Solution

Prish Group deployed an AI-powered document intelligence pipeline combining OCR, a fine-tuned extraction model, and automated matching against purchase orders in their ERP. Approval workflows were automated based on value thresholds and GL coding rules. Exceptions were flagged for human review; straight-through processing handled the remainder automatically.

The Outcome

Straight-through processing rate reached 78% within 60 days of go-live. Finance staff were redeployed to higher-value analysis work. Processing costs fell by 70% and average payment cycle reduced from 42 to 11 days, unlocking early-payment discounts with four major suppliers.

FAQ

Questions About AI & Automation

How does AI invoice processing work?

The system combines OCR (optical character recognition) to convert PDF and scanned invoices to machine-readable text, a fine-tuned extraction model to identify and classify invoice fields (supplier, amounts, line items, VAT), and automated matching against purchase orders in the ERP. Invoices that match within defined tolerances proceed automatically; exceptions are flagged to a human reviewer. Over time, the model learns from corrections to improve its accuracy.

What straight-through processing rate can we expect?

For invoice types with consistent formatting (e.g., invoices from repeat suppliers you have trained the model on), straight-through rates of 80–90% are achievable. For highly varied or hand-written invoice formats, rates are lower initially but improve with volume. The 78% rate in this engagement was achieved within 60 days across a mixed supplier base of over 300 suppliers.

Does the system integrate with SAP, Oracle, or other ERPs?

Yes the automation layer integrates with all major ERP systems via standard API or file-based interfaces. We have delivered integrations with SAP S/4HANA, Oracle Fusion, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and custom ERP systems. The automation sits alongside your existing ERP rather than replacing it, which means no disruption to your existing financial workflows.
