OB10 has closed a deal with Centrica, one of the UK’s largest gas and electricity providers. Centrica decided to adopting OB10’s e-Invoicing solution. By doing so, Centrica:
- streamlines its accounts payable function;
- automates the ability to accept supplier invoices in a wide variety of international invoice data formats.
- is able to maintain its position as a leading supporter of the Prompt Payment Code.
- follows the footsteps of utilities providers including like Severn Trent and Scottish Water.
Enhanced E-invoicing Portal
The decision of Centrica is well timed, as OB10 is launching the latest version of its customer e-invoicing portal. Based on feedback sought from thousands of accounts payable (A/P) and accounts receivable (A/R) customers, the portal offers:
- users closer collaboration, greater personalisation, and enhanced self-service support and visibility into the invoicing process
- enhanced user experience
- efficiencies and transparency to the purchase-to-pay process
- a platform to deliver ground-breaking new services
- accelerated system performance and offers near-infinite scalability
