As the world continues to transition towards digital transformation to get rid of and automate paper processes, how will you embrace digitisation and make it a part of your finance process?
The brilliance of digital transformation within the finance arena and beyond, is its versatility – it can be implemented by a business no matter size, sector or level of knowledge. You don’t must have the technical nous to understand how to build an e-billing system into your workplace. In fact, if using a different electronic billing program is one thing you have been actively putting off these past few years, then you can rest assured that our e-billing software will make your work life exponentially easier.
There may be a number of reasons why you may not be using software that generates digital invoices. You may be comfortable with the familiar legacy, paper-based system that you’ve been using for years. If it is working fine and all your customers are being billed at the right time, why should you even contemplate a big change? You might have tried other e-billing solutions and reverted back to your old system since it was easier to use. Or quite simply, you perhaps might not be conscious of alternatives that exist, which could really streamline your ways to make your finance department work smarter.
How does our e-billing system work? Our process automation software seamlessly collects and parses data from anywhere in your business including current and legacy ERP systems. It intelligently designs the client facing document your business requires, meaning you are bypassing any physical printing of the document saving you printing costs. These documents will be distributed in the most appropriate format prior to being incorporated into your workflow processes. Lastly, your documents are safely stored onto your document content management system (DCMS).
There are myriad benefits of implementing Docuflow’s e-billing solution to your business. First and foremost is the cost saving you could be making with our solution. The price of processing an invoice is typically between £4.00 to £25.00 but can be as high as £60.00. We quite often see invoices which are more expensive to process than the invoice value itself. With this “Procure to Pay” automation solutions you are able to drive down the costs of processing the invoice with real-time visibility of the invoice payments and business cashflows via intelligent dashboards.
A direct consequence of e-billing is to expedite payment by ultimately reducing Days Sales Outstanding (DSO). By your highly efficient, methodical manner, you are facilitating swift payment and becoming a turbo-charged return on investment (ROI) by way of Docuflow’s e-billing software.
E-billing solutions could save you time and promote good feeling both with clients and employees alike. For instance, a streamlined workflow means employees’ time may be put to better use in higher value tasks, instead of printing and physically posting invoices to customers.
A brilliant facet of e-billing is transparency. Docuflow’s e-billing software means you can see at a glance the precise time, right down to the second, when a document has been sent, received and viewed. This is often especially useful if you have customers who've issues with receiving invoices via post, or who consistently claim to not receiving postal invoices from you.
So how exactly does e-billing compare to posting invoices and sending via e-mail?
Did you know that the world’s first cell phone made its debut in 1973 inside a demo by John Mitchell and Martin Cooper of Motorola? It sure would be a hefty handset weighing exactly 2kilograms, that is roughly the size of three bags of sugar. Comparing e-billing to physically posting invoices or e-mailing them is like comparing Mitchell’s phone in 1973, to an iPhone 12 today that weighs 160grams. E-billing technology is light years’ ahead of postal mail and e-mail, and also the user experience is vastly improved.
An added bonus is that the platform is cloud-based which means you are using less paper and therefore ensuring your company is operating in more ethical, environmentally friendly manner.
