At a glance

Fullwood JOZ, founded in 1785 and with more than 250 employees across the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France and Ireland, replaced fully manual invoice processing with ISPnext's AP Automation, connected to ERP system Infor LN. This results in faster approval, greater accuracy and better insight into invoice status.

Challenge

Invoices were processed entirely manually, with a cumbersome approval process, piles of paper and separate emails that sometimes caused confusion about status.

Approach

Implemented AP Automation, connected to ERP system Infor LN, together with implementation partner Xibis, with short communication lines and practical instructions for colleagues across multiple countries.

Results

More efficient and smoother invoice processing, shorter approval cycles, greater transparency and traceability, and a central platform where every step of the process is recorded.

Challenge

Gaining control over a fully manual invoice process

At Fullwood JOZ, invoice processing was done entirely manually, which led to inefficiency and a cumbersome approval process. The company needed a solution that is fast, accurate and easy to use for colleagues across different countries and departments.

  • Time-consuming and cumbersome approval process

    Reviewing and approving invoices took an unnecessary amount of time, causing delays and unnecessary work pressure.

  • Confusion caused by paper and separate emails

    Piles of paper and separate emails sometimes caused confusion about the status of invoices.

  • Need for a solution across multiple countries

    The solution had to be easy to use, so colleagues in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France and Ireland could quickly get used to the new way of working.

"Automating invoice processing allows us to work more efficiently."
