01 · The situation

70% faster payables, and 30 points of DPO the business did not have before

Invoices arrived from a large vendor base across global locations. Each one had to be unbundled, prioritised and validated before exceptions could be managed and payments authorised.

Complex invoice permutations and manual processes created errors. The first sign of a duplicate or delayed payment was usually a vendor calling.

Cash-flow visibility was poor: leakages through duplicates and missed terms hurt profitability and vendor relationships, and there was no 360-degree view of the AP function.

02 · What JiffyFinOps.ai did

The Invoice Processing Agent read every layout, split bundled documents and indexed each invoice to vendor and entity automatically.

Duplicate detection across the vendor group, matching to purchase orders and contract terms, and exception routing with the evidence attached.

One queue for the AP function — what was captured, what was posted, what was held and why — replaced status chases across teams.

With every invoice visible at capture, payment timing could be planned to terms rather than to whoever chased hardest.

03 · The outcome

70% faster AP, 30% higher DPO

Invoice throughput rose sharply while duplicate and delayed payments fell away. With the full payables position visible at capture, the business extended DPO by 30% without straining supplier relationships.
