Our partnership with EzzyBills means that invoice processing is fast, in fact, it’s virtually instantaneous. Recognising line items comes as a standard, as does matching invoices with their corresponding purchase orders.
Those that are not as familiar with Zahara may not know that we also allow users to manage multiple invoices that are in one PDF and Zahara’s intelligent OCR can separate the documents. So if you send multiple orders to a trusted supplier and they invoice you with each order all in one document, Zahara knows that you’ve got separate invoices matching to your different orders. You can even send emails with several invoices attached, which will be handled as individual documents.
