Make complying with eInvoicing easy with Dext Prepare

Companies and organisations of all shapes and sizes across Australia are adopting eInvoicing as part of the drive to digitise the business community and align to international markets. Whilst it’s not yet mandatory outside of the public sector, the business benefits make it a very attractive proposition.

One of the primary reasons for shelving paper and PDF invoicing in favour of an automated digital exchange of invoice information - is efficiency. As well as reducing processing costs by up to 70% (to less than $10 an invoice in many cases), it can significantly speed up business-to-business payments. Even state and government agencies are now reporting that they pay eligible eInvoices within 5 days! So eInvoicing is proving to be efficient and good for cashflow.

As eInvoices are exchanged securely between suppliers’ and buyers’ software, the risks of human errors, lost, fake or compromised invoices, and email scams and ransomware attacks, are all well-mitigated. You’ll still need to apply all your internal checks and assurance processes before paying your invoices, of course, but eInvoice processing is much faster and more secure than traditional methods.

If you are using Dext Prepare, the good news is that you already have the tool you need to receive eInvoices. Your already established rules in Dext Prepare will seamlessly apply to eInvoicing as well, so you can continue to streamline your bookkeeping and pre-accounting processes.
