Case study: A large financial services client specialising in investment management
Our Client
A South African investment company with global operations.
Our solution
Using Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and Datastor Metrofile VYSION’s content management platform – we were able to fully automate the client’s accounts payable process.
- Metrofile provided a management console in response to the client’s need for management oversight.
- The console is designed to provide a view of the RPA Bot in real time. This enables management to react and adjust decision making when required.
- By connecting the console directly to the ERP, the client could match the incoming invoice data against the master data from the ERP system.
- The client could manage complex allocations of invoice line items across different departments and financial periods and perform additional real-time reports against business parameters and exceptions.

Benefits and value

- Auto capture of invoice details ensured a low error rate and high throughput.
- Significantly reduced the time taken to process 400+ invoices per month from days down to minutes.
- Invoices can now be vetted against budget and allocated to GL codes – making it simple and easy to manage.
- Payment threshold, duplicate payments and other alerts also enable full control of how payments are made.
- Digitising accounts payable made it easy to validate vendors and extend the service to on-boarding vendors, thereby ensuring that an end-to-end view of the process is considered.
- Integration into ERP and Datastor platform enables prompt and efficient use of all supporting documents for immediate payment and future audit reference.
