Customer Sales orders are critical to both the sustainability and growth of any business. However, manual Sales Order Processing (SOP) can be time-consuming, error-prone and lead to fulfilment delays, potentially hindering delivery lead times ultimately leading to poor customer satisfaction and stunting growth.
Within Sales Order Processing a high level of automation can be achieved through the use of inSTREAM™’s IPA, delivering a smarter, more efficient process, improving processing time and reducing cost.

inSTREAM is able to process all sales orders received by businesses regardless of how they are received including paper (post), email and attachments, fax and EDI. It is able to read and process all formats, structured, semi -structured and unstructured ensuring all sales orders you receive follow a single process through inSTREAM.
inSTREAM’s Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) solution negates time-consuming manual data extraction of both customer information and line item information including product description, product code, quantities and price from sales orders.
Once inSTREAM has extracted the data it is able to carry out further tasks to validate data including (but not limited to):
Verification of customer details
Matching line order details against product lists
External compliance
Checks and measures including duplication, date validation, values add up to totals etc.
As an AI platform inSTREAM requires human interaction to learn. Through a user friendly interface inSTREAM collaborates with the order processing teams who teach it where to find key information, such as pricing, product codes and details, and customer information. inSTREAM learns from every sales order it processes, therefore as the volume of orders processed increases, its confidence and accuracy improve and the amount of interaction needed with humans decreases, enabling employees to focus on the complex, value-based tasks.
