Real Estate and Construction industries deal with high volumes of invoices daily. Dealing with so many invoices everyday is an important but time consuming and tiring task.

There are many problems caused when these invoices are entered manually:

  • Highly error prone
  • Duplicate entries and fraudulent activities
  • Costly affair as it involves a huge team and effort
  • Large vendor team and therefore different formats of invoices
  • Storing and validating these invoices is a headache
  • Invoice checks needed at multiple stages by multiple people
  • Many of these invoices require the control and approval of several people before they can be paid
