Invoice processing holds a significant overhead for most businesses. Different business sectors have different way of approaching for invoicing their clients. If the invoice is late, wrongly interpreted or lack of necessary information may lead to transactional error or delay in payment. If the invoice is not precise, itemising product sales or hours of work undertaken, your invoice may be challenged by the client.

The digital transformation and adoption of upcoming technologies will take businesses to a next level. E-invoicing is the present and future of invoicing. It is an electronic invoicing process introduced by the Government of India, which is a common B2B practise. E-invoicing enables businesses to automate their process by integrating with e-invoicing software. This will help to gain business efficiency, operational and strategic benefits.

IVL introduces online e-invoicing software, OptiE-invoice to B2B clients.

How inbound process works?

Inbound process in OptiE-Invoice enables organizations to automate and streamline the processing of supplier invoices. It automatically extracts information from any incoming invoice, validates data, and transfers it to your ERP (SAP) system. The system validates electronically generated E-Invoices from IRP Portal as well as manual invoices (Hard copy and soft copy). It extracts data, validates with an already created Goods receipt, Purchase order, etc, highlights discrepancies (if any), and posts the data automatically to your ERP (SAP) system (If data matches).
