From invoice intake to approval: automated, accurate, and audit-ready
AP automation replaces manual invoice capture, disconnected approvals, and error-prone processing with a single, automated workflow, from intake and data extraction to approval and ERP posting. Finance teams gain real-time visibility, fewer errors, proactive exception handling, and controls and audit trails that mitigate risk.

The challenge
Manual AP doesn’t just slow finance down, it costs more than most teams realize
Every invoice demands manual effort: data entry, approval follow-up, and exception handling. Without a direct link between the invoice, the original purchase order, and goods received, duplicate payments, overpayments, and fraudulent invoices can go undetected until after the money has been spent.
By month-end, the team cannot say with confidence what has been processed, what is pending, or what has been paid in error. And when auditors arrive, the evidence has to be reconstructed, not retrieved.
How it works
Invoice intake and AI data extraction
Vendors submit invoices by email, or teams drag and drop to upload them directly. Fraxion captures every invoice and extracts line-level data automatically. AI-assisted processing reviews each invoice on arrival, flags exceptions, and surfaces the information your team needs to apply their judgment and make a confident decision before the invoice moves to approval.
Matching against approved commitments
When procurement is managed in Fraxion, every invoice can be matched against the original purchase order and goods received. Fraxion’s AI-assisted matching identifies price variances, quantity discrepancies, and duplicate submissions at the point of processing, flagging exceptions with clear reasoning so your team can review before payment is approved.
Approvals routed to the right authority
Invoice approvals follow your spending thresholds and delegation of authority, routing and escalating automatically. Approvers act in seconds from mobile or desktop, with the invoice, the purchase order, received items, and budget all in view.
Posting to your ERP, without duplicate entry
When integrated with your ERP, approved invoices post directly, eliminating manual re-entry, reducing the risk of error, and ensuring your system of record reflects only transactions that have been fully authorized and validated upstream.
Top-rated for AP automation
It used to take me a month and a half just to enter invoices; now I can easily get through each one in three to four minutes. We put out maybe a thousand invoices a month through Fraxion, and we’d have to hire two more people in the department if we didn’t have it.

FAQs
AP automation replaces manual invoice processing (data entry, matching, approval chasing, and posting) with a single structured workflow and a continuous audit trail. Invoices are captured, coded, matched, approved against policy, and posted to your ERP automatically. The result is faster processing, fewer errors, and real-time visibility from invoice intake to approval.
Procurement automation controls spend before it is committed, managing purchase requests, approvals, purchase orders, and budget control. AP automation manages the process after goods or services are received, automating invoice capture, matching, approvals, and ERP posting. Together they create an end-to-end procure-to-pay process. With Fraxion you can start with either procurement or AP and scale to full procure-to-pay at your own pace.
No. Fraxion sits in front of your ERP, capturing invoice data, managing approvals, and validating matches before posting approved, fully coded transactions to your ERP for payment and GL posting. Your ERP remains the system of record. When integrated, Fraxion ensures it receives only clean, authorized data, eliminating manual re-entry and errors.
Fraxion extracts invoice data automatically and presents it alongside the original document with a confidence rating, so your team verifies rather than re-keys. AI-assisted matching then checks each invoice against its original purchase order, catching discrepancies that extraction alone would miss and surfacing exceptions for your team to review and resolve.
Most implementations go live in four to eight weeks, and within three months for more complex setups with additional integrations or custom rules. A dedicated Fraxion implementation consultant guides each step, from ERP integration and GL coding setup to approval workflow configuration and user onboarding.
AP automation replaces manual invoice processing with a workflow that is faster, more accurate, and audit-ready.
As transaction volumes grow, Fraxion scales with them, processing more invoices, with greater accuracy and less manual effort, so your team focuses on exceptions and decisions, not data entry. Book a demo customized to your ERP, industry, and team size.
