Finance teams often spend significant time manually processing supplier invoices, checking purchase orders, validating line items, chasing approvals, and entering data into ERP or accounting systems. These manual processes create delays, errors, duplicate handling, compliance risks, and limited visibility across the payment lifecycle.
Intelixsoft helps organisations modernise finance operations using WorkHub24, an AI-powered no-code workflow automation platform that can digitise invoice processing and integrate approved data with standard ERP systems through APIs.
With WorkHub24, businesses can move from email-based invoice handling and spreadsheet tracking to a structured, automated, and auditable invoice processing workflow.
The Business Challenge
Many finance teams still receive invoices through shared mailboxes, PDF attachments, supplier portals, or scanned documents. Once received, invoices are manually reviewed, matched against purchase orders, routed for approval, and keyed into finance or ERP systems.
Common challenges include:
- High volume of supplier invoices received by email
- Manual invoice data entry
- Slow approval cycles
- Difficulty matching invoices to purchase orders
- Errors in invoice amounts, supplier details, tax, or line items
- Limited visibility of invoice status
- Duplicate invoices or missed invoices
- Manual follow-up with approvers
- Delays in month-end processing
- Poor audit trail across approvals and changes
- Disconnected workflow between finance, procurement, operations, and ERP systems
WorkHub24 helps replace these manual steps with intelligent document processing, automated workflow routing, approval tracking, and ERP/API integration.
How Intelixsoft and WorkHub24 Help
Intelixsoft works with your finance and operations teams to map the current invoice process, identify approval rules, define integration requirements, and implement a WorkHub24-based invoice automation workflow.
The solution can help automate the full invoice lifecycle:
- 1Invoice receipt
- 2AI-based document capture
- 3Invoice data extraction
- 4Supplier and purchase order validation
- 5Approval routing
- 6Exception handling
- 7ERP/API posting
- 8Audit and reporting
This creates a more controlled, visible, and efficient invoice management process.
Typical Invoice Automation Workflow
Invoice Capture
Invoices can be captured from multiple sources, including:
- Shared finance inboxes
- Supplier emails
- PDF attachments
- Scanned documents
- Supplier portals
- Manual upload by finance users
- Mobile upload where required
WorkHub24 can initiate a workflow when a new invoice is received or uploaded.
AI-Based Invoice Data Extraction
WorkHub24 can use AI-powered document processing to read invoice documents and extract key information such as:
- Supplier name
- Supplier ABN or tax identifier
- Invoice number
- Invoice date
- Purchase order number
- Line item details
- Description
- Quantity
- Unit price
- Tax amount
- Total invoice value
- Payment terms
- Bank account details
- Currency
- Due date
This reduces manual data entry and helps finance teams process invoices faster.
Validation and Matching
The extracted invoice data can be validated against business rules and connected systems. Validation can include:
- Supplier verification
- Duplicate invoice check
- Purchase order matching
- Goods received confirmation
- Amount and tax validation
- Cost centre validation
- Approval limit checks
- Bank account verification
- Mandatory field checks
- Exception identification
Where invoices match expected rules, they can move automatically to approval. Where exceptions are found, the workflow can route the invoice to the correct person for review.
Approval Routing
WorkHub24 can route invoices to the right approvers based on your business rules. Approval routing can be based on:
- Invoice value
- Department
- Cost centre
- Project
- Supplier
- Purchase order owner
- Business unit
- Approval delegation
- Location
- Exception type
Approvers can receive tasks, notifications, and reminders. Escalation rules can be configured to prevent invoices from being delayed.
Exception Handling
Not every invoice can be processed straight through. WorkHub24 can manage exceptions in a structured way. Common exceptions include:
- Missing purchase order
- Mismatched supplier details
- Price variance
- Quantity variance
- Missing goods receipt
- Duplicate invoice
- Incorrect tax
- Unrecognised supplier
- Missing approval
- Bank detail changes
Instead of managing exceptions through email chains, WorkHub24 creates a clear workflow record with task ownership, comments, attachments, approvals, and audit history.
ERP and Accounting System Integration
Once an invoice is validated and approved, WorkHub24 can integrate with standard ERP or accounting systems through APIs. Potential integration points include:
- Supplier master data lookup
- Purchase order validation
- Goods receipt confirmation
- Cost centre validation
- Invoice posting
- Payment status update
- Approval status synchronisation
- Document attachment upload
- Audit record update
This helps reduce duplicate data entry and ensures approved invoice information flows into the finance system accurately.
Supported ERP Integration Scenarios
WorkHub24 can support integration with standard ERP and business platforms, subject to API availability and integration design.
Common systems may include:
Intelixsoft can assess your ERP environment and recommend the most suitable integration approach based on your current systems, API availability, security requirements, and business process design.

Common Use Cases
This solution is suitable for:
Example Process: Supplier Invoice to ERP Posting
A supplier sends an invoice to the finance inbox. WorkHub24 detects the invoice, extracts key data, validates the supplier and purchase order, checks for duplicates, and routes the invoice to the correct approver. If the invoice matches the purchase order and approval rules, the invoice can be approved and posted to the ERP system through API integration. If there is an exception, such as a price mismatch or missing purchase order, WorkHub24 routes the invoice to the responsible team for review. Finance users can monitor the full process through dashboards, task lists, SLA tracking, and audit records.
