Esker, a global cloud platform and leader in AI-driven process automation solutions for finance and customer service functions, will be exhibiting at UKISUG Connect on the 27th – 29th November at the ICC in Birmingham, UK on Stand P1. Expanding on Esker’s 16-year partnership with SAP, Esker’s Accounts Payable Automation and Esker’s Order Management Automation solutions have been SAP certified for integration with SAP S/4HANA® Cloud.

By achieving this certification, Esker demonstrates its ability to deliver projects that meet the quality requirements and standards set by SAP. The certification can give businesses confidence that Esker’s solutions are enabled to work with their SAP S/4HANA® Cloud software and be compatible with future upgrades.

“Today, it is no longer enough to say that a solution integrates with SAP technology, it must be able to demonstrate the impact of that integration,” said Aurélien Coq, Product Manager at Esker. “At a time when companies are increasingly sensitive to the way their data is processed, this certification helps to assure customers of the highest quality and expertise.”

Esker’s partnership with SAP allows the company to continuously improve its solutions. For Esker’s customers, this collaboration is also an assurance for the future. “When our customers are ready to migrate to SAP S/4HANA® Cloud, we will be there to support them,” added Coq.

Esker can also confirm that its Accounts Payable Automation and Order Management Automation solutions are now available on SAP® Store, the digital marketplace for SAP offerings and complementary solutions from SAP partners.

“We are pleased that our solutions are available on SAP® Store, enabling businesses to easily discover and purchase them,” said Catherine Dupuy-Holdich, Senior Product Manager at Esker. “This will enable us to expand our reach within the SAP ecosystem, to deliver better results to our customers and accelerate their digital transformation.”

By complementing ERP systems, Esker’s AI-driven automation solutions boost a company’s ability to weather difficult business conditions. Recent events and the general drive towards digitalisation will only increase the interest of businesses to optimise and streamline their finance and customer service functions. Having Esker’s solutions made available on SAP® Store will add another layer of facilitation to the customer experience.

Prior to Esker, a team of 4 accounts payable staff were manually processing up to 35,000 invoices a year from 800 vendors. This resulted in a very challenging process that led to common issues such as: duplicate payments from data input errors, slow workflow approvals, limited control and visibility, poor supplier relationships.

Hillarys therefore researched the market to find a solution that could help eliminate many of these issues and make process improvements across their entire AP function. Specifically including the automation of data manually re-keyed, reduction in errors, and an electronic workflow approval process to reduce the burden on authorising signatories. A scalable, cloud-based solution was essential as invoice numbers were predicted to nearly double over the coming years.
