Project challenges

• An outdated invoice management system that was unable to cope with its emerging businesses
• Manual tracking and processes of vendor invoices that involved extracting information from hundreds of e-mails
• Failure to update the right order number in the invoice due to time-consuming error-prone processes

Our Solution

During the project's exploratory stage, SharePoint Designs identified the common fields in the invoices. Then, we leveraged MS SharePoint Forms to design a simpler form that captures all the relevant fields. Using Power Apps, we provided a streamlined list of the e-mails that were sorted by date, with a separate field to showcase customer name, address, and order details. Finally, after submission - the documents were generated and automatically saved in a unique folder.  

Thanks to our MS SharePoint expertise, the client could quickly retrieve the right document at the right time while easily reviewing the updated fields highlighted.
