We consider our greatest benefit to be the use of various templates when accounting for periodic invoices. We mainly use the option of accounting based off of the percentage ratio. This is a big time-saver as it reduces the error margin in cost accounting drastically.

Problem

An extensive accounting agenda meant for Lindt reduced ability to process incoming invoices flexibly and flawlessly and caused an enormous time burden on the accounting administration.

Solution

Lindt decided to use the wflow cloud application to streamline processes, for which Lindt appreciates the high degree of automation of document processing, including predictive accounting.

The result of deploying wflow

Implementation of wflow has simplified proof of invoices for Lindt. They particularly appreciate the error-free reading of data, which reaches more than 98%, and predictive billing in the case of recurring invoices. Equally important for them is the use of cost approval application, which can work flexibly in Lindt and thus speed up the posting of all documents.
