cioInvoice

E-invoice ingestion middleware for SAP. Collect invoices from email, government e-invoice platforms, and webhooks — then parse, validate, resolve, and post to SAP automatically.

Multiple Ways In, One Way to SAP

cioInvoice collects invoices from wherever they arrive — email, government platforms, or direct API integration.

Email (IMAP)

Available

Monitors configured email inboxes via IMAP. Processes attachments automatically, tracks read/unread state, and routes invoices into the processing pipeline.

Country Connectors

Available

Pre-built integrations with national e-invoice platforms. Pulls invoices directly from government APIs like KSeF (Poland), ANAF (Romania), and more.

Webhooks & API

Planned

REST API endpoints for direct invoice submission. Push invoices from any external system — ERP, procurement platform, or custom integration.

Government E-Invoice Platforms

Pre-built, plug-and-play integrations with national e-invoice systems. No custom development required.

4-Layer Invoice Resolution

From raw invoice data to a complete SAP document — automatically.

1

Deterministic Mapping

Maps invoice format fields directly to SAP fields. Handles standard fields like amounts, dates, line items, tax codes, and currency — no guesswork involved.

2

SAP Master Data Matching

Looks up vendor by VAT ID, resolves tax codes by rate, verifies purchase orders, and matches cost centers. Uses your SAP master data as the source of truth.

3

Configurable Flow Rules

Company code derivation, GL account defaults, cost center routing, and tolerance checks. Rules you define once that apply to every invoice automatically.

4

Approval Enrichment

When automatic resolution isn't possible, the invoice enters an interactive approval UI with SAP master data dropdowns. Users fill missing fields — the system learns.

Built for SAP, Nothing Else

Direct integration with SAP via OData and SOAP. No middleware layers, no translation — native SAP document posting.

S/4HANA (OData)

Native OData V2/V4 integration for journal entries, supplier invoices, and purchase order matching in S/4HANA.

R/3 & ECC (SOAP/RFC)

SOAP and RFC interfaces for posting to FI, MM, and SD modules in classic SAP systems.

Master Data Sync

Reads vendor master, tax codes, GL accounts, cost centers, and purchase orders directly from SAP for validation.

FI / MM / SD Posting

Posts invoices as FI documents (FB60), MM invoice receipts (MIRO), or SD billing documents depending on your process.

Review, Approve, Post

Configurable approval chains with mobile support. From automatic posting to multi-level review — you decide the process.

Auto-Approval

Invoices that pass all resolution layers can be posted to SAP automatically — zero human intervention.

Threshold Rules

Route invoices based on amount, vendor, company code, or custom rules. Different approval chains for different scenarios.

Mobile PWA

Progressive Web App for approvals on any device. Review, annotate, and approve invoices from your phone.

SAP Master Data UI

Interactive approval screen with SAP master data dropdowns. Fill missing fields from vendor master, GL accounts, and cost centers.

Under the Hood

Built for enterprise reliability and SAP compatibility.
