Capture. Code. Approve. Track. Repeat.
Every invoice has to be received, coded, approved, and paid before it can be filed away. Next Invoices handles the entire journey automatically — inside the systems you already run, with a full audit trail on every step.
Approve invoices anywhere. Anytime.
A modern interface lets your team approve invoices from anywhere — always within their delegated authority. No pile waiting when you return.
Capture every invoice, whatever the format.
Next Invoices processes any format from any source — paper, PDF, XML, Swiss QR codes, EDIFACT. Index manually, by barcode, by OCR, or by reading the XML and EDI directly. Standard captures cover online purchase portals, and standard APIs connect anything else.
Work inside the systems you already run.
Next Invoices integrates with most business systems. It validates suppliers and uses the tax codes, purchase orders, and charts of accounts already in your system — then posts and releases payments automatically. From Dynamics NAV, click once to open any supplier invoice. From ASPECT4, click once to open the whole supplier folder. RESTful APIs connect anything else.
Code every invoice automatically.
Next Invoices codes invoices on the rules in your business system and in Next. Authorized users add or change coding within their role. Full support for multidimensional accounting, multiple tax codes, open and closed periods, personal account plans — the lot. Comprehensive, yet easy to use, thanks to customizable forms.
Track every action to the millisecond.
Every action is logged — who, what, and when. Auditors check compliance fast. Accounts Payable sees who's holding up an approval. And you can see who had an invoice before you.
Start with invoices. Scale to any process.
Next Invoices is best-in-class invoice processing, shaped by the managers, specialists, clerks, and accountants who use it worldwide. It runs on the Next Smart Process Application platform, with a full BPMN2 process engine — ready for any business process that needs structure.
Everything else, already in the box.
Cost invoices and stocked items
Cost invoices and stocked goods need different approval paths. Next comes with workflows for both — and lets you define more.
3-way matching
Use purchase orders for part of your procurement? Next automatically matches the invoice, the PO, and the delivery. If the match holds, the invoice is approved — untouched by humans.
Rules and roles
Distribute invoices for approval automatically. Driven by company rules and data, not by people remembering who's in charge of what. Governed by organizational roles, not individual names — always within delegated authority.
Escalation and substitutes
Next knows who to ask when an invoice is above your pay grade, and who to tell when reminders go ignored. Heading on vacation? Tell the system. Automatic delegation hands approvals to set substitutes.
Overview and statistics
Know exactly where every invoice sits, and when to expect approval. Next reminds those who forget — so you pay on time, with the statistics to keep improving.
Invoice archive included
Next Invoices comes with a complete invoice archive. No more paper copies in ring binders, no more PDFs on file servers. Access invoices from inside your business system or from any browser, on PC, Mac, or tablet — and save on ERP license costs.
Up and running fast
Your team needs little or no training. Next has been rolled out in organizations with several hundred users, where the training effort was measured in minutes. Not hours, or days.
Countries and languages
Next Invoices works for a small local team and for the multinational alike — multiple business units, countries, currencies, business systems, and users served in their own language.
Scalable
Next serves 5 or 10 occasional users well. But it's designed for high volume. The archive captures 4.6 million documents an hour on a single server. The process engine handles users by the thousands, and transactions by the millions.
Enterprise-grade security
Next lets the right people in and keeps the rest out. Permissions fully control your access to invoices, account codes, and approvals. Nobody approves what they aren't authorized to. No one sees what isn't meant for them. Security is built in.
