In a move that reflects the changing enterprise software market, nuBridges, an Atlanta-based eBusiness software and services provider, has announced it is launching Incoming Invoice Management, a service for its current Value Added Network (VAN), AS2, and FTP customers.

Incoming Invoice Management is specifically designed for a wide range of companies that find managing incoming invoices difficult and costly. An affordable and practical alternative to traditional electronic invoicing, the nuBridges IIM service allows companies and their business partners to take advantage of their existing AS2, FTP or VAN connections, minimizing the time and expense of starting from scratch with a new technology.

The service should not be confused with the existing einvoicing products, the company said. IIM operates as an extension of the customerÆs current EDI capability û resulting in a simple path to electronic invoicing with few training or implementation headaches, it said. "The key word is management," says Tiyash Bandyopadhyay, director of eBusiness Solutions at nuBridges. ôThis service is more than just a data transfer tool. Inbound Invoice Management actually transforms the data into whatever form you require and even matches purchase orders to invoices.ö

The solution comes with an ability to apply business rules based on the timing and content of purchase orders, invoices and advanced shipment notices. This allows companies to create business rules which create alerts and notifications depending on the content of related transactions through a dashboard. The related transactions can be examined regardless of whether the documents were received by VAN or any other connectivity method. This correlation of purchase orders with a shipment notices give companies greater control over the shipment and invoicing process, such as the flexibility to process invoices only for those items that have been shipped.

Inbound Invoice Management is available immediately to all current and future nuBridges customers. More information regarding this and other nuBridges eBusiness software solutions is located at www.nubridges.com.
