Case Study: Elektro‑Material AG achieves automated invoice processing and faster payments with JobRouter

Automatic processing of accounts payable using JobOrder Match

Elektro‑Material AG, Switzerland’s leading electrical wholesaler with roughly 700 employees, nine branches and a 250,000‑item online shop, faced a high volume of supplier invoices and a need to centralize and automate accounts‑payable reconciliation across multiple locations and languages. To move beyond manual header checks and enable full line‑item matching and “dark” processing, Elektro‑Material selected JobRouter and its JobOrder Match module to capture, reconcile and centrally process incoming invoices.

JobRouter implemented OCR/document capture integration and JobOrder Match to compare invoice headers and line items with ERP order and goods‑receipt data, automatically triggering booking and payment for 100% matches while routing exceptions to responsible staff. Deployed across EM’s head office, nine branches and the Elevite lighting center, the solution now handles about 1,120 processes/day and achieves roughly 80% automatic (shadow) processing today (with a goal of 90–95%), delivering faster throughput, higher data quality, improved cash‑discount capture and better purchasing transparency for Elektro‑Material AG.
