MediusFlow™

MediusFlow™ is an effective IT support application for processes in the company that the existing business system cannot deal with. There are many processes in an organisation that are only partially, if at all, supported by its business system. The MediusFlow™ platform makes it possible to include these processes and through this improve profitability, control and flexibility.

INTEGRATED FLEXIBILITY
MediusFlow™ can be integrated with your existing management system, depending on which
system you are currently using. Medius-Flow™ can be customised to compensate for any deficiencies
your existing system may have. MediusFlow™ can be integrated with your existing
intranet, but can also be used as a standalone tool in which your business can determine the
interaction and appearance of the application, so that it conforms to your existing environments
and working methods.

A WEALTH OF FUNCTIONS
MediusFlow™ contains a wealth of functions designed to support and secure the processing
of different types of jobs. One of these is automatic reminders to improve control for any given
job. Current standard modules include supplier invoices, purchasing, agreements, job management
and improvement flow. You can also create your own flow to support other processes
in your organisation.

BETTER PROFITABILITY
Deploying MediusFlow™ as a platform gives your business a flexible solution, adapted to your
needs. MediusFlow™ offers you better profitability and better control over your process flow.
Your investment has a short repayment time, as processing costs can be reduced significantly.

Purchase Order Workflow

MediusFlow is an easy-to-use workflow system for purchase orders
It is mainly used for creating PO and receiving goods for indirect material (non inventory)

Automate your invoice processing

e-docs UK delivers an industry leading electronic invoice processing solution that eliminates the need to manually process purchase invoices. This SaaS solution, charged per invoice processed, supports electronic workflow, revision, cost allocation and approval of invoices as well as transfer to an organization’s ERP or financial system. With its versatile reporting, this solution provides complete access and display for all invoice information, as well as a spend analysis.

The process begins by automatic matching of invoices to purchase orders, contracts or other pre-defined payment schedules. Invoices that do not match will automatically be coded and sent to the right person for review and approval. MediusFlow has multi-level workflow to make sure that the invoices are handled according to your company’s policies and procedures. Powerful business-rules management can also be used to streamline and develop the invoice handling process.

MediusFlow can be integrated with any ERP system and can be implemented in between 6 and 8 weeks.

Benefits:

Cut costs by 50%
You can considerably reduce your processing costs for supplier invoices. By using e-docs UK's services you can process supplier invoices digitally and thereby make the administration of them much more efficient, with a cut in the cost of invoice administration by as much as 25-50 per cent.

Matching and line level
We can help match a supplier’s invoice with a purchase order based on several levels depending on the needs of the company. Matching can occur partly at header level in a company that wishes to match at an overall level and partly at line level for companies wishing to check invoices in more detail. The system processes all the
available forms of supplier invoice such as EDI, scanned paper invoices and e-invoices. The application processes all invoices in the same way in a standard format.

Different types of invoices
We can process all types of invoices. Manual processing is thus much reduced, freeing time to be spent on more qualified work. When discrepancies between validation periods or monetary limits occur, the invoice is sent for checking in accordance with a circulation list connected to the agreement. If there is no circulation list, one is created manually. When there is no discrepancy the invoice is sent for payment directly.

Several Advantages
The advantage of electronic invoice processing is that the work load for the company decreases thereby radically
reducing administration costs. Additionally, the company has better insight into all the flows in the organisation, making it easier to locate individual tasks. Digital supplier invoice processing will allow the company to save the time which today is being spent on less qualified invoicing work. 

Purchase Module

PROCESS ALL TYPES OF PURCHASE ELECTRONICALLY and substantially reduce the manual work needed. Most companies make many purchases that are not supported by their business system. This could, for example, concern the purchase of indirect materials that are not entered as an article in the company’s article database, or that the company works with purchase requests and authorisation that are not supported by the business system. Consequently many companies today choose to combine their supplier invoice process with a purchase module. This enables support for the complete process from request to payment, which in turn means that all purchases, even those not normally processed by the business system, can be stored in digital form and matched with invoices.

SCALABLE SOLUTION FOR ALL PROCUREMENT
MediusFlowTM makes this possible in your company. The product can be integrated with your existing purchase function or can be used separately. The various flows are scalable and can be optimally set to match your company’s work methods. It is also possible to process several types of purchase, including part number based, description based, or external part number based purchases. Your company will then be able to process the complete purchase sequence from request to delivery registration. Medius is a market leader in Scandinavia with respect to just this process.

FLEXIBLE & POWERFUL
MediusFlowTM works on the basis of all flows being scalable and can therefore be adapted to suit any company. Through this the company gains the possibility to administer authorization limits and roles as well as handle requirements for print out, order confirmation and incoming goods registration. Additional advantages of this are that a lot of paper work is avoided and that the tasks to be done notify the user of this instead of the user needing to search for the tasks.

CONTROLLED & EFFECTIVE
The purchase module provides the company with the possibility to process various types of purchase, which greatly reduces the manual processing. The organisation of indirect purchases is much improved since all the information is compiled in one place. This results in improved control over one-off and occasional purchases that are carried out lower down in the organisation.
