Invoice workflow in SAP „step-by-step“

Invoice receipt: Import via flexible input channels

Paper documents are fed into a scanner, digitized as PDF files, and imported. If an invoice arrives in digital form via email, such as an X-Rechnung or in ZUGFeRD format, it is fully automated and transferred into the software.
