This business value results in faster invoicing, fewer errors, and greater satisfaction for project managers, consultants, and invoice administrators.

Feature details

By using Copilot and agentic automation, you can remove inefficiencies in the invoice process. The solution automatically detects work from Microsoft Outlook calendars and Microsoft Teams meetings. These features enable automated creation and submission of time entries. You don't need alerts and reminders that often frustrate project managers, consultants, and invoice administrators.

The automation also helps create, submit, and check policy for expense reports from emails and receipt scans. It includes automatic policy validations. Project managers can upload documents with rules to flag approvals that need review while allowing others to approve automatically.

Overall, these advanced technologies use natural language inferences and automation to help project-centered companies submit accurate invoices, reduce corrections, and remove frustrations and last-minute issues for everyone involved.
