AI-Powered Invoice Matching and AP Automation

The Only AP Automation Built Inside a Supply Chain Platform

Most AP Tools Solve a Document Problem. We Solve a Supply Chain Problem.

Generic invoice matching validates whether numbers on an invoice match numbers on a purchase order. That’s useful, but it’s not enough for high-volume procurement environments.

You also need to know whether goods were actually received, whether a vendor has recurring pricing issues, and whether an invoice has already been submitted. Those answers don’t live in the document — they live across procurement, receiving, and supplier operations.

Our Buyers Workbench, which includes Invoice Matching and AP Automation, is built inside a supply chain planning platform — so the AI evaluates procurement context in real time, not just document fields.

AP Automation Buyers Workbench

AP Automation That Understands Your Entire Operation

Invoice Matching and AP Automation is built for organizations where supply chain and finance converge — natively connected to your forecasting and planning systems, integrated with your ERP, and aware of the full operational context behind every invoice.

Historical Pricing Trends

See how each supplier’s pricing has moved over time, so a variance is judged against real purchasing history — not a single PO.

Supplier Delivery Performance

Evaluate invoices with vendor reliability in view, from fill rates to lead-time adherence across the full order history.

Receipt Accuracy

Confirm that what was billed was actually delivered, using receiving records from the same platform that placed the order.

Recurring Invoice Exceptions

Spot the vendors and items that generate the same exception month after month, and fix the cause instead of the symptom.

Duplicate Billing Patterns

Detect resubmitted and near-duplicate invoices automatically, before a second payment ever leaves the building.

Purchasing Compliance

Hold every transaction against contracted terms and approved purchasing policy, with a full trail behind each decision.

AP Automation - How it Works

How it Works

When an invoice arrives, AP Automation takes it from there.

Invoice captured from email

The system reads inbound invoices directly from your inbox. No manual upload required.

AI extracts and structures the data

AI and ML pull structured data from PDFs, Excel files, and image attachments automatically.

PO retrieved from your ERP

The matching PO and receiving records are pulled in real time from Oracle, SAP, and others.

Matching performed

Two-way matching for services (invoice vs. PO) or three-way matching for products (invoice vs. PO vs. goods receipt).

AI makes the call

Clean invoices are auto-approved and posted back to your ERP. Discrepancies route to the right person with full context.

That’s it. No chasing down approvals. No manual re-keying. No hunting through emails to find the original PO.

80-90%

Touchless Invoice Processing

The vast majority of invoices are approved automatically, with no human touch required — and AP teams spend their time on the exceptions that actually need judgment

New Horizon Difference

Everything You Need for Touchless AP

Smarter matching, fewer false positives, and automation you can trust — even on your most complex procurement transactions.

Capture runs automatically from email to ERP: invoices are read straight from the inbox, structured data is extracted from multiple file formats, and each document is associated with the right transaction in real time.

Matching goes deeper than the document — validating pricing, quantities, and terms for services, then adding goods receipt matching for products to confirm what was billed was actually delivered.

Approvals move without the bottleneck. Match confidence is evaluated against configurable thresholds, so only genuine exceptions reach your team — with guided resolution workflows when they do.

Discrepancies get caught before they cost you. A price variance, quantity mismatch, or missing receipt is flagged clearly and routed to the right person with all the context needed to resolve it.

Accuracy improves over time as the system learns from historical corrections and user decisions, adapting to vendor-specific invoice formats and behaviors the longer you use it.

Enterprise-grade controls back it all up: a Tolerance Rules Engine, duplicate detection, vendor performance tracking, multi-entity and multi-currency support, SOX audit traceability, and role-based access.
