The key to solving inefficient, error-prone invoice workflows lies in a fully automated, rules-based process. Instead of checking and approving each invoice manually, a digital platform like FireStart takes over – quickly, transparently, and seamlessly integrated with your existing systems.

From the moment an invoice is received, it is captured digitally and routed into the automated workflow. Relevant details – such as amounts, purchase order numbers, or cost centres – are identified and validated using software.
By automatically matching the invoice against purchase orders and goods receipts (known as a three-way match), manual verification becomes largely redundant.

Approval is triggered via a pre-defined approval matrix, ensuring the right individuals are involved based on criteria such as department, invoice value or project. Once approved, the invoice is booked directly into the ERP system and archived in an audit-proof manner.

This digital approach not only saves considerable time – it also provides full transparency across the process and ensures compliance with both internal policies and external regulations. Finance teams are relieved from routine tasks and can once again focus on value-adding activities – without losing control or risking compliance breaches.
