For many sales operations teams, managing purchase orders and manual data entry is a constant frustration. Not only is it time-consuming, but it also increases the risk of errors, which can lead to delays and miscommunications. Cin7 Core’s Intelligent Document Recognition (IDR) provides a way to streamline this process, reducing administrative burdens and improving accuracy.
Here are five ways IDR can help simplify sales data extraction and free up your team to focus on more valuable tasks:
1. Reducing Time Spent on Manual Data Entry
Processing purchase orders manually can take up a significant portion of the workday, pulling attention away from customer service and sales growth. IDR automatically extracts key details from documents like PDFs and images, converting them into sales orders within Cin7 Core. This reduces the time spent on routine admin work, helping teams focus on strategic tasks instead.
2. Minimizing Errors and Reducing Rework
Data entry mistakes—like incorrect product codes or quantities—can disrupt sales and operations, leading to costly corrections and dissatisfied customers. IDR extracts data accurately, helping to prevent these errors before they happen. As the system learns from past documents, accuracy continues to improve over time.
3. Speeding Up Order Processing and Customer Response Times
Slower data entry means slower order processing, which can delay deliveries and impact customer satisfaction. With IDR, purchase orders are quickly transformed into sales orders, reducing delays and enabling teams to respond to customer needs more efficiently.
4. Integrating Seamlessly with Existing Processes
Adopting new technology can sometimes feel disruptive, but IDR is designed to fit into your current workflow. Once documents are uploaded, the extracted data is reviewed and approved before being processed in Cin7 Core. This ensures a smooth transition without requiring a major overhaul of existing processes.
5. Managing High Volumes with Ease
For businesses handling large numbers of purchase orders, manually entering data can quickly become overwhelming. IDR supports batch uploads, allowing multiple documents to be processed at once. This feature significantly reduces the workload and helps teams keep up with high demand more efficiently.
