Straight-through processing
and automated posting
Process invoices without manual intervention and post them automatically in ERP systems.
Straight-through processing and automated posting with bluDELTA
bluDELTA creates the conditions for invoices to be processed without manual intervention and posted directly in downstream systems.
The focus is not on the posting itself, but on the quality of the underlying data. Information is prepared so that it is complete, consistent, and clearly assigned.
This results in processes that are not only automated, but also scale reliably. The outcome: Processing times are reduced, manual effort decreases, and the cost per document is sustainably lowered.
Automated posting is the result of reliable and clearly assigned data.
Automated posting: a frequently unmet goal
In many organizations, automated posting falls short of expectations. Processes are partially automated but still require manual intervention.
The reasons rarely lie in the posting system itself, but in upstream data processing:
- Information is incomplete or not clearly assigned.
- Deviations from master data create uncertainty.
- Required contextual information is missing.
- Data is not available in a system-ready structure.
The results: longer processing times, additional verification effort, and increasing cost per invoice.
What are the prerequisites for straight-through processing and automated posting?
How bluDELTA creates the conditions
bluDELTA processes document data through a consistent system logic and ensures that all relevant information is available at the required quality level. Data is not only extracted, but actively refined:
- Information is structured and standardized.
- Data is matched with references and placed into context.
- Content is assigned and enriched from a business perspective.
These processing steps work together to create datasets that can be used without further interpretation.
This provides a stable foundation for automated processes, even as volumes grow.
From data to automated posting
When data is complete, correct, and clearly assigned, it can be directly processed in ERP and accounting systems.
Posting then results from data quality – not from additional manual decisions. Systems can operate consistently and transparently on this basis.
Position within the overall process
Straight-through processing and automated posting result from the interaction of all processing steps:
- Class & Split: Documents are identified and structured
- Extract: Content is extracted and transformed into a consistent data foundation
- Mapping: Data is assigned, enriched, and prepared for posting
bluDELTA ensures that these steps work together to create a data foundation that can be directly used in downstream systems.
