Accounts Payable Solution Allows Users to Capture, Process, View and Analyze Invoice Information

WEST CHESTER, Pa and ASHBURN, Va. (February 25, 2010)Dolphin, a top provider of business process optimization and information lifecycle management for customers using SAP solutions, and Brainware, Inc., a leading provider of intelligent data capture and enterprise search solutions, have announced a collaboration on an accounts payable automation solution for an international manufacturing company running SAP.  The solution will automate the processing of several hundred thousand invoices per year for the customer’s European Operations.  Dolphin will provide the customer with its unique SAP-certified invoice ingestion and process tracking platform along with implementation and ongoing support services.    

The customer, who has worked with Dolphin on other solutions, partnered with Dolphin and Brainware to implement imaging, invoice processing, workflow and analytics for its shared service centers. The data capture solution from Brainware will be a critical part of the project. The customer expects data entry automation to allow them to process invoices faster and more accurately and to generate a quick return on investment by enabling its shared service centers to become more profitable.

Dolphin will seamlessly integrate Brainware Distiller with its SAP-certified Process Tracking System for Accounts Payable (PTS-AP), which resides within the SAP application. Under a multi-year agreement, the customer will leverage Brainware’s intelligent data capture solution to automatically extract and validate complex header and line-item data from invoices, which complements Dolphin’s PTS-AP and the customer’s workflow process.

“Dolphin began this partnership with Brainware because of the natural synergies between the two organizations,” said Art Smithson, Director of Imaging Applications at Dolphin. “Our respective solutions allow organizations to quickly recognize the benefits of business process automation, and in this case, invoice processing. This end-to-end solution from Dolphin and Brainware will help organizations increase profitability by reducing costs and uncovering cash that was hidden in accounts payable.”

Save Time and Cost in Order-to-Cash Process for SAP

Posted in SAP Business Process Management on November 6th, 2009 by admin – 1 Comment

The Order-to-Cash process is at the heart of your business.  And yet, it is often surprisingly inefficient and difficult to track.  Even the smallest error can make the process inefficient, quickly draining available capital and resources. Automating O2C processes and linking documents improves cash availability by decreasing the number of touch points at each step of the cycle.

This is the kind of thing Dolphin does best — find smart solutions to take the time and cost out of critical processes like order to cash, accounts payable and ILM for SAP customers. We’ve put together a recorded webinar that highlights opportunities to increase cash flow, reduce costs and gain control over the Order-to-Cash process.
