IC4SAP — an innovative way to apply AI in Accounting
Below we highlight some of the strengths of this technology. You can check out other examples of AI applied to Finance in this other article.
- Artificial Intelligence and autonomous learning: Artificial intelligence improves the system through self-learning, allowing the system to adapt and improve continuously.
- Adaptive learning algorithms: These algorithms are nourished by user feedback. For most documents, learning is effective only after 1 to 5 manual corrections.
- User feedback with just one click: The function Single Click Entry allows users to capture information in the correct format using the mouse cursor, refining the algorithm regarding the position, format and structure of the desired text.
- High field recognition rates: Field recognition rates reach 90% or more after some learning and optimizations.
- Full integration with SAP: IC4SAP uses the SAP database, eliminating the need for data duplication or having to bring in external data. Thus, the process is more agile and all the information is kept within the SAP system. Something that not all systems can do.
- Business Entity Determination (BED): The BED algorithm matches the document data with the SAP Master Data to identify business partners such as company code, suppliers and customers.
- All document formats are recognized: such as invoices, orders, and more, including common formats such as DIN A4, legal, letter, as well as TIFF, JPEG and PDF, which are used in commercial/corporate transactions.
Example of using IC4SAP
> Provider Training Scenario: train a supplier 4 times and realize that there was an error.
> IC4SAP Solution: saves time by overwriting the training performed for a specific provider.
