ApexConnect automates cross-platform data communication for improved efficiency and timely business insights.
Data Capture
Suppliers send invoices and Employees submit expense reports for data capture, approval, and exception resolution.
Automation
ApexConnect automates the exchange, transformation, and integration of invoice and expense data with your spend management, ERP, payment, and human capital management data. Your master data drives your spend platform. As invoices and employee expenses are approved, our process quickly updates every system.
Smarter & Faster Decisions
Your team gets a current view of cash flow and other business metrics to inform smarter and faster decisions.
Source
ApexConnect transfers vendor master, PO, receipt, cost, and list data from the ERP to the Spend Management (“SM”—SAP Concur, Ultimate Software, Coupa) application.
Categorize, Update, Route
ApexConnect organizes your project/charge codes, approvers, and other important metadata and loads them to the BSM to normalize taxonomies and inform workflow routing.
Submit
Suppliers E-mail Invoices to the SM application for cloud-based invoice processing:
• scanning
• digitization
• data capture
• approvals
• exception resolution
Transfer
BSM transfers invoice and travel expenses to ApexConnect.
Transform
ApexConnect transforms, massages, and integrates invoice and travel expense data from the SM along with your ERP, Payroll, CRM, and HR data.
Expense, Route, Approve
Employees submit travel expenses to a normalized set of project/charge codes. Those expenses are automatically routed to the assigned manager of the corresponding project for approval.
Enrich
ApexConnect enriches the ERP with the financial data as expenses are approved, okay to pay, and then paid.
Pay
Paperless payments are executed from the ERP (or BSM). ApexConnect aligns the paid status in both systems as the invoices/expenses are paid. If the payment is made in the ERP, ApexConnect sends a payment confirmation to the SM (and vice versa).
Optimize
