Case Study: innogy SE achieves automated accounts payable and reduced fraud with OpenText Vendor Invoice Management for SAP Solutions

innogy SE Transforms Accounts Payable Processes with OpenText

innogy SE, a large European energy company, faced a fragmented SAP landscape and inconsistent, non‑standard accounts payable workflows across multiple entities while processing roughly 330,000 supplier invoices a year. As part of a company‑wide S/4HANA initiative, innogy needed a standardized, SAP‑aligned AP solution that required little customization, could integrate its existing OCR hub, speed up invoice processing and reduce manual effort and fraud.

innogy implemented OpenText Vendor Invoice Management for SAP Solutions with OpenText Professional Services, integrating its OCR hub and using SAP‑certified Fiori apps. The project automated invoice approval routing, centralized invoice handling, eliminated physical signatures, reduced duplicate payments and fraud, and delivered faster, more accurate invoice processing with improved visibility and compliance across the business.
