Creditor overview

Creditor overview

In the Creditor Overview, you can view the average processing costs per invoice per creditor. This is based on the number of invoices and the number of invoice lines processed for the respective creditor within the specified period. The total and average invoice amount are also displayed, along with information on the product groups to which the costs are attributed (if configured).

To benchmark the processing costs against an amount, Spend Cloud uses an average processing cost of 45 euros per invoice.

Configuring product groups is not mandatory for this analysis, but it does provide an additional level of detail in the overview. Application administrators can set this up under Application Management / Analysis / Product Groups.

Using the selection criteria on the left side, you can generate various summaries. By clicking on the column titles in the overview, you can filter the list based on that value. This allows you, for example, to obtain a summary of relationships with the highest number of invoice lines.

Invoice Method

For relationships where a relatively high number of invoices are received, it can be useful to check if the invoices are coming in the desired manner (such as XML invoices). You can verify this in the 'Invoice Method' menu section.

Automatic Invoice Approval

For relationships with a relatively high number of invoice lines, it can be useful to have those lines automatically approved based on Purchase Orders or Contracts (if these modules are in use). This overview can serve as a starting point to determine whether there are orders or contracts in progress for the respective relationships, or if they can be initiated.

At the top of the credit overview, you'll find buttons to create an XLS or CSV export, allowing you to further dissect the underlying data.
