Invoice Verification Software: Tungsten AP Essentials™
Streamline the invoicing process from capture to validation and approval with our advanced invoice verification software, AP Essentials™
Invoice automation in the cloud
Tungsten AP Essentials™ is a world class accounts payable solution that automates the capture and validation of invoices from any source, in any format. Supplier invoices typically arrive in paper, PDF or myriad electronic formats delivered through postal services, emails, EDI or Internet portals. It doesn’t matter. AP Essentials enables AP teams to swiftly capture, codify and route invoices seamlessly, securely and consistently.
AP Essentials uses proprietary optical character recognition (OCR) technology with impressive accuracy. The extracted data is then validated, classified, and routed for approval, enabling organizations to automate the invoice processing workflow. AP Essentials integrates with existing financial systems to provide a seamless end-to-end process, reducing manual data entry and increasing efficiency.

Failing to verify an invoice can have several consequences, including delayed payments, financial losses, and incorrect payment amounts. Invoice verification software allows you to automatically capture, analyze, validate, and approve invoices from various sources.
Enhanced optical character recognition (OCR) accuracy allows Tungsten AP Essentials to capture and digitize handwritten and printed text, which can then be validated to ensure your invoice is accurate. Validating each invoice is a key part of modernized invoice management and compliance, and invoice validation software takes the manual labor out of the invoicing process.
Authenticating an invoice is a tedious process that involves checking the details on the invoice against the vendor information you have on file. You can start by looking at the vendor name, address, and other basic information to make sure it’s all correct. Next, you can compare the invoice to your recent purchase history with that vendor to make sure you’re not being charged for anything you didn’t receive.
Solutions like AP Essentials, which is part of Tungsten InvoiceAgility, allow you to eliminate some of the manual labor involved in the invoice approval system, saving you time and money.
When you’re verifying an invoice, you need the basic information about the vendor as well as any receipts for goods or services you’ve recently received. Once you verify the vendor’s basic information, you can start to look at individual items on the invoice to make sure they align with your recent orders. Invoice approval software can check your invoice against your other records and validate it for you, saving you valuable resources.
From the banking and financial services industry to small businesses, everyone can benefit from having a simplified solution for verifying invoices.
Finding the best invoice approval software starts with looking for the features you need most. Tungsten AP Essentials doesn’t require any additional hardware, so setup is simple. AP Essentials uses machine learning to optimize line item extraction, with enhanced OCR recognition for hard-to-read handwriting.
