01 · The situation

85% straight-through in twelve weeks, at 150,000 invoices a month

A multi-country roll-out meant invoices in many layouts, languages and tax regimes, from 5,000 suppliers at a volume of 150,000 a month.

Template-based capture could not keep up with the variety, and every unfamiliar layout became an engineering ticket.

The manufacturer needed straight-through processing at scale — quickly — without waiting for a data clean-up project to finish first.

02 · What JiffyFinOps.ai did

Invoices are read, not templated: header, lines, tax and intent extracted from whatever layout they arrive in.

Roughly fifteen exception categories accounted for about 90% of everything the agents met; each was worked as a case with a defined resolution path.

5,000 suppliers onboarded to a single portal for status, documents and queries — answered from the ledger, not by the AP team.

Every recode, rejection and approval by the team taught the agents; the next invoice of that shape resolved on its own.

03 · The outcome

85% straight-through processing

Within twelve weeks, 85% of invoices posted without a human touch, with ROI inside six months. The exception mix — fifteen types covering ~90% — became the operating playbook for every subsequent country.
