From Documents to Smart Processes

Use AI to automatically extract information from documents, manage processes without media breaks, and specifically reduce manual tasks.

Others talk about AI. We integrate it into your document processes.

Intelligently Connecting Documents and Processes

From data capture to archiving: AI helps companies process information intelligently, automate processes, and actively leverage documents for business operations.

Many companies already manage their documents digitally—but do not yet actively use the information they contain for their business processes. Invoices, contracts, forms, and emails are stored, but are often still processed manually.

AI helps automatically understand content, present information in a structured way, and intelligently trigger processes. Approvals, reviews, and follow-up tasks are automated, information is made available centrally, and workflows are significantly accelerated.

This results in streamlined document processes with fewer manual tasks, greater transparency, and a better foundation for data-driven decisions.

Automatically Understand Documents

Information from invoices, contracts, emails, or delivery slips is automatically recognized, extracted, and processed in a structured manner. Relevant content is immediately available for downstream processes.

Intelligently Automating Processes

Documents are not only archived but also integrated directly into business processes. Approvals, forwarding, and follow-up tasks can be triggered and monitored automatically.

Making Information Available More Quickly

Documents, emails, and information are available centrally and can be accessed across systems. Relevant content can be found in seconds instead of having to search for it manually.

Supporting Data-Driven Decision-Making

AI analyzes documents, recognizes patterns, and identifies relevant connections. This makes risks, deadlines, and opportunities for optimization visible earlier.

Documents become data. Data becomes processes.

From Documents to Smart Business Processes

Use AI to intelligently link documents, information, and business processes. This will help you reduce manual tasks, create transparency, and accelerate document-based workflows in the long term.

Automatically Recognize and Process Documents

Invoices, purchase orders, contracts, delivery slips, and forms contain large amounts of information every day. In many companies, this data is still entered, verified, and transferred to different systems manually. This takes time, causes data discontinuities, and increases the likelihood of errors.

AI helps automatically recognize documents, extract content in a structured manner, and make relevant information directly available for downstream processes. This ensures that data is made available exactly where it is needed—without any additional manual steps.

Manage Permits Digitally and Streamline Processes

Approval processes are among the most common causes of delays in day-to-day business. Documents get passed around, decisions are delayed, and the current processing status often remains unclear.
With intelligent workflows, documents are automatically forwarded to the right people. AI helps with prioritization, identifies missing information, and provides transparency into ongoing processes. Processing times can be shortened, and processes can be managed much more effectively.

Make information available centrally

In many companies, documents are scattered across email inboxes, file repositories, and various systems. As a result, information is lost or can only be found with great effort.
Modern document management creates a central information hub for the entire company. AI-powered search and analysis features help users find content faster, reveal connections, and deliver information in a targeted manner.

Integrate documents directly into business processes

Documents are often the starting point for important business processes. An invoice triggers an approval process, a purchase order generates follow-up tasks, and a contract leads to new deadlines or responsibilities.
AI automatically recognizes content and initiates the appropriate process steps. Information is processed intelligently, tasks are created automatically, and workflows continue seamlessly without any media breaks. This results in end-to-end processes with significantly less manual effort.

From Documents to Smart Processes

Many companies already manage documents digitally—but do not yet actively use the information they contain for their business processes. AI lays the foundation for automatically understanding documents, intelligently analyzing content, and directly triggering processes. This results in seamless workflows without media breaks or manual data transfers. AI provides support precisely where time is currently being wasted:
AI does not use isolated data, but instead accesses your existing ERP data in SAP Business One directly.

What are digital document processes?

Digital document processes help companies automatically capture and process information from invoices, contracts, emails, and other documents, and integrate it into business processes.
Modern solutions go far beyond simple archiving. Using AI, content is automatically recognized, classified, and processed further. Information flows directly into ERP, approval, and business processes.

When used in conjunction with SAP Business One and ELO Digital Office, these solutions create intelligent document and process environments that increase efficiency, reduce errors, and support informed decision-making.
