Words IFS Cloud uses
- External Supplier Invoice. An invoice that arrives from outside the system (e-invoice, capture or scan) and is loaded before final processing.
The Pulsify way
- Each company gets its own Pulsify forwarding address. Ask suppliers to send invoices there, or forward them yourself.
- Pulsify reads each attachment and works out if it is an invoice, a credit note or a statement.
- Pulsify finds the supplier in IFS Cloud and codes each line.
- Review and approve. The supplier invoice is created in IFS Cloud with the file attached.
Pulsify connects to IFS Cloud. We set up the connection for you.
What Pulsify does not do here
- Unknown senders can be held until an admin allows them.
- You can also upload files or take a photo in the app.
Common mistakes
- Putting more than one invoice in a file.
- Not setting tax codes on the External Supplier Invoice Tax Codes page.
