Automating the Order-to-Cash Workflow

Manufacturing industry

The order-to-cash (O2C) cycle is critical for cash flow management in manufacturing. Manual order handling, invoicing, and payment tracking create inefficiencies. Automation streamlines these steps, accelerating revenue realization and improving customer experience.

Challenge

  • Order intake was managed via email or paper-based forms, delaying entry into ERP.

  • Manual invoice generation caused backlogs and delays in approvals.

  • Errors in delivery confirmation led to payment issues and disputes.

  • Communication gaps with customers hindered transparency.

Solution

A unified O2C automation solution was deployed to accelerate transactions:

  • Order Extraction Bots
    Bots captured and validated incoming orders and auto-fed them into the ERP system.

  • Invoice & Payment Automation
    Invoices were generated automatically and matched with delivery and payment records.

  • Customer Communication Workflows
    Real-time updates were sent for order status, dispatch, and invoice delivery.

Results

  • 50% Reduction in O2C Cycle Time
    From order placement to payment collection, time was significantly reduced.

  • Improved Billing Accuracy
    Automation ensured consistent pricing and quantity tracking.

  • Enhanced Customer Experience
    Faster confirmations and accurate updates improved service quality.
