AP AUTOMATION FOR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS ENHANCED WITH AI

Maximize vendor discounts and cash flow with AI-powered AP automation for Microsoft Dynamics

Turn accounts payable from a cost center into a source of profit by enabling your team to focus on early-payment opportunities, stronger supplier relationships, and better cash control.

Modern AP teams need a unified, intelligent process that keeps every invoice, support document, and approval decision connected from the moment an invoice arrives. Datahaven streamlines the entire AP lifecycle by combining AI-powered extraction with deep context, dynamic routing, and fully embedded visibility in Dynamics. Each stage works together to eliminate manual effort, accelerate throughput, and give AP, Purchasing, and Finance a clear, accurate view of every transaction.

Six Stages of the Datahaven AP Solution

1. CAPTURE

Centralizes incoming invoices and support docs, auto-names, auto-files, and routes them into the right workflow queues instantly

    2. EXTRACT

    AI reads invoice details, captures header and line data, flags low-confidence fields, and prepares clean information for AP review

    3. VERIFY

    AP reviews extracted data with full document context, checks accuracy, and confirms vendor and PO matches

      4. RESOLVE

      Routes exceptions to buyers, departments, or warehouse teams, resolves pricing or receipt mismatches, etc.

        5. APPROVE

        Approvers see invoices with coding and full context in one view, confirm accuracy, and return them to AP for a quick final review

        6. FINALIZE

        AP completes final checks, confirms coding and amounts, and quickly posts approved invoices for payment 

          By eliminating unnecessary manual touchpoints, the Datahaven AP Automation solution ensures faster processing, fewer errors, and consistent on-time payments that strengthen vendor confidence and improve working capital.

                  Reduce invoice cycle times with AI-enhanced accounts payable automation in Microsoft Dynamics

                  Accounts payable teams lose hours keying invoices, chasing approvals, and reconciling discrepancies across emails, file shares, and spreadsheets. Late payments mean lost discounts, and errors create friction with vendors and finance alike. In document-heavy industries such as manufacturing and distribution, these inefficiencies ripple through procurement, inventory, and production schedules, increasing costs and delaying output.

                  Transform your procure-to-pay process with intelligent automation and document-centric workflows

                  The Datahaven AP Automation solution connects every invoice to the data that defines it. Invoices are captured automatically from email, vendor portals, and other sources using AI-powered OCR, validated against existing purchase orders, receipts, and vendor master data, and routed through a configurable, document-centric workflow for review, approval, and posting, all without re-keying data or switching between systems.

                  Gain end-to-end visibility from purchase order to vendor ledger with dynamic virtual folder structures

                  All supporting documents, including purchase orders, receipts, packing slips, and vendor correspondence, are organized automatically within Datahaven’s virtual folder structures, giving every department complete visibility into the transaction. With automation eliminating bottlenecks, teams process more invoices in less time, reduce exceptions to near zero, and make every payment cycle predictable, accurate, and auditable.
