FMCG Leader Streamlines Accounts Payable (AP) at Scale

Industry: Fast-Moving Consumer Goods
Monthly Invoice Volume: 3,000+
Invoice Types: Dot matrix, multi-format PDFs, Excel
ERP: Custom enterprise portal via APIs
Deployment: Customer cloud

The Challenge

Invoices came from multiple sources—some barely legible in dot matrix format—causing extraction failures, manual tax splits, and delayed approvals. A disjointed process led to mounting vendor disputes and zero audit trail.

The E42 Fix

  • Intelligent Document Processing with Excel fallback for poor OCR
  • Real-time tax splitting and validation
  • Custom API push to ERP for seamless data entry
  • Conversational AI for training & support 

Impact Delivered:

  • 60% reduction in manual effort
  • Over 90% extraction accuracy
  • 30–40% reduction in operational cost
  • Faster vendor payments and audit-ready trails

Global Travel Giant Cuts Down Processing Delays

Industry: Hospitality & Travel
Employee Count: 65,000+
ERP: QuickBooks
Languages Supported: English, French, German, Spanish

The Challenge

Manual invoice workflows caused cash flow delays and reconciliation errors. Scalability and record tracking were key pain points in both Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR).

The E42 Fix

  • Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) with IDP
  • End-to-end AP/AR automation
  • Multilingual invoice parsing
  • Seamless integration with QuickBooks

Industry: Steel & Manufacturing

A 100% manual AP process plagued by errors, inconsistent formats, and slow approvals. SAP lacked API support, complicating automation.

The E42 Fix

  • AI-powered IDP with rule-based workflows
  • Power BI dashboards for visibility
  • Three-way matching: PO, GRN, invoice

Impact Delivered:

The E42 Fix

  • End-to-end automation from ingestion to ERP
  • Validation logic based on ERP records
  • Real-time vendor communication
  • Live dashboards for performance monitoring

Impact Delivered:

  • 80–90% touchless processing
