Workflow Automation

Keep work moving

Workflow automation helps ensure information follows the right process every time.

Intelligent Document Processing

Process documents automatically

Supplier invoices, receipts, customer orders, and other business documents often arrive in different formats. Genius IDP automatically reads documents, extracts key information, and routes them through the appropriate workflow. Information can be reviewed, approved, and stored directly in Genius ERP, reducing manual data entry and making documents easier to find when you need them.

Create quotes faster

Quote requests often arrive as emails containing product details, quantities, and specifications that must be entered into the ERP system. Smart Paste automatically reads the information and converts it into a quote inside Genius ERP. Employees can review the results, make any necessary adjustments, and continue building the quote without manually entering each line item.
