Generate Purchase Order

  • Once the order is created by the user, next is to print the order and sent that Purchase Order invoice to the supplier.

Order Confirmation

Once the Purchase Order is delivered to the supplier, the supplier sends backs an “Order Confirmation”.

This order confirmation needs to be matched against the PO.

PO Matching

The process of matching PO against the Order Confirmation is called “PO matching”.
For PO matching the best tool is DocBits, which can be easily automated. The easy training and AI swarm intelligence enable fast results at a high level, not just for header data but for line items in table extraction. The seamless Infor integration with the Infor BODs allows for automating the entire process with validation and export. Reduce time and costs very fast and effectively with DocBits.
  • Upload the Order Confirmation in DocBits 
  • Here you will find the PO matching button either Red or Green. If the PO matching button is “Red” this means documents do not match, else quantity on the order confirmation does match the quantity of the purchase order then the PO matching button turns “Green” as in the picture below.
  • The main advantage of PO matching in DocBits is that DocBits automatically extracts table and line items correctly from an Order Confirmation with the help of AI which results in more efficiency.
  • Access the matching overview by clicking on the PO matching symbol on the Dashboard.
