Calpion: The Company Behind Hermes

Hermes Accounts Payable Automation is the answer to your perennial issues about A/P processing. Turn your accounts payable from a cost center to a profit center with a custom solution that is tailor-fit to your business!

Reconciliation of
Matching Errors

Generate a report, which contains the consolidated exceptions or errors, four times a day.

High Scalability

Process invoices 24/7 and eliminate backlogs by processing invoices overnight. This solution can process an invoice in 20 seconds, saving about 77.77 hours weekly.

Minimize Errors

Process invoices with 100% accuracy using only 10% of human effort to handle exceptions.

Custom Business Rules

Use straight-through processing (STP), an automatic activity that doesn’t require manual intervention. A Master Invoice Bot contains the related words that the system can use to fetch essential fields included in the Service Level Agreement (SLA).

Validation of Extracted Data

Check invoice entries against a mapping file for errors and flag it for the manual processing of a full-time employee with login credentials.

Extract Data

Read digitized invoices sent by vendors through an email client. The system also provides a User Interface for uploading handwritten and paper invoices and uses OCR technology to extract text into a machine-readable format.

How the A/P Department Can Benefit from Hermes Accounts Payable Automation

Invoices received from email and other configured sources serve as inputs.

The employee scans the paper and handwritten invoices and uploads them to the system for conversion to a machine-readable format.

The system stores the information in a database, and the bot classifies and extracts the required data.

The bot processes the information and sends the errors or exceptions for review by an authorized employee.

Processed invoices go to A/P ERP for payment processing.

The bot stores the processed invoices in a file for on-demand report printing.

Like many growing companies, your current AP invoice processing system probably can’t keep up with increasing volumes of invoices and complex business criteria for invoice processing.

Are you still handling invoices manually?
Do your employees still need to read every invoice one at a time, verify them with purchase order information and delivery information, approve each invoice, and then check the GL coding required for the items?
Does your team work overtime and on weekends to deal with backlogs?

If the answer to any of these questions is ‘Yes’ then it’s time to embrace automation! With Hermes invoice automation software, you can quickly process vendor invoices 24/7 using artificial intelligence.

Hermes is a machine learning invoice processing software that ‘learns’ vendor-specific data points and processes invoices.
The system uses AI-powered optical character recognition to scan invoices, convert the information into structured data, and transfer it into your ERP system with 100% accuracy. Exceptions are reported for human review.
Authorized members of your team can access your invoices anytime and anywhere on the cloud.
The system generates audit logs and reports based on customizable filters.
