New workflow management at Litens
Condition before the tool is introduced
- 1400 – 1600 incoming invoices and credits per month
- Different donors per department and supplier
- Long turnaround times from receipt to approval of invoices
- Delays in the absence of release persons
- A continuous process from the preparation of an invoice to the archiving is missing
- No transparency as to which bill is left where, why or for how long
Improvements after introduction
- Connection to easyScan thus significantly simplifies the recording of invoices
- Partial automatic allocation of the frankers based on corresponding master data of the ERP system
- Reduction of lead time by up to 30 (depending on department)
- Provision of the release log and key data for later archiving of the invoice
- Transparency significantly increased in the approval process
