Automating invoice coding in IFS
The biggest automation gain left in an IFS finance process is sitting in plain sight. Around 80% of non-PO invoices are still coded by hand at €4-8 each, and self-learning AI can now take almost all of that work off your team.
This white paper shows how: over 90% of invoices coded automatically from go-live, no new interface for your team to learn, live in weeks, and a return on investment most teams see in the first quarter.
What self-learning AI makes possible in IFS
Self-learning AI is what finally makes purchase invoice automation work at scale in IFS. It learns how your organisation codes invoices directly from your own history, so there are no rules to build and none to maintain, and over 90% of invoices can be coded and routed automatically from go-live.
Rules, OCR and template based systems carried invoice automation this far, and they still handle the straightforward cases well. What they cannot do is adapt. Snowfox AI is trained on your own invoice and coding data and connects directly into your existing invoice workflow, so your AP team spends its time on exceptions and analysis instead of coding, business departments receive invoices ready to approve, and nobody has to learn a new interface or change how they work in IFS.
Every prediction carries a confidence score, so you decide where the AI posts automatically and where a human still looks. The white paper covers how that works in practice, what Polarteknik, Pimatic and Nordic Paper have seen, and what connecting to IFS actually involves.
What this white paper covers:
- Why rule-based automation leaves most non-PO invoices untouched
- How self-learning AI codes and routes invoices without rules to build or maintain
- Confidence scores, and deciding what posts automatically
- What IFS users like Polarteknik, Pimatic and Nordic Paper have achieved
- The business case: from €4-8 per invoice to volume-based monthly pricing
- What implementation involves, and why it is live in weeks
- How to run a free AI accuracy test on your own IFS invoice data
