Chaffinch manages the entire PO and invoice matching process for you, using advanced Intelligent Document Processing (IDP), OCR, and AI—powered by DocHorizon. From integration and invoice intake to extraction and matching, we handle it all so your team can focus on higher-value work. 

1. PO Data Integration 
We connect directly with your procurement or ERP systems to access up-to-date purchase order data. This integration ensures we always have the most current information for matching—no manual uploads or extra work needed from your team. 

2. Invoice Intake 
Chaffinch offers multiple ways to capture your incoming invoices. We can securely access your accounts payable email inbox to collect digital invoices automatically. For paper invoices, you can use our digital mailroom or set up a dedicated PO Box so all physical mail is sent directly to us for digitisation and upload. Every invoice, no matter how it arrives, is seamlessly brought into our workflow. 

3. Data Extraction 
Using advanced OCR and AI technology powered by DocHorizon, we extract all essential details from both POs and invoices—including supplier information, order numbers, line items, quantities, prices, and more. This ensures comprehensive and accurate data capture from every document. 

4. Automated Matching 
Our automated platform compares the extracted invoice data with corresponding PO data, flagging any discrepancies and validating matches against your business rules. Matched and approved data is then delivered in a ready-to-use format that integrates directly with your ERP, accounting, or procurement systems—accelerating approvals and payments.
