Day-to-day invoice processing

Built for healthcare

AP automation that understands clinical budgets.

01

Clinical and non-clinical spend

Medical supplies, pharmaceuticals and agency staff costs are coded to clinical budget lines and kept apart from facilities and admin spend, under rules we set up with your finance team.

02

Fund coding and budget control

Invoices are coded to the correct cost centre, fund code and subjective code on capture. Budget holders see committed spend against their allocation.

03

Multi-site groups and shared services

Healthcare groups running several sites or a shared service centre need entity-level and consolidated views. Recharges and split allocations are coded to each entity with a clear trail.

04

Audit and inspection readiness

Every invoice is linked to its source document, coding decision and approval chain. Full traceability for CQC inspections, internal audit and procurement reviews.

How it works

From invoice to fund-coded and approved.

  1. 01

    Invoices arrive

    Supplier invoices come in by email, post or procurement portal and land in one queue.

  2. 02

    AI reads and codes

    Every field is read and the invoice is coded to the correct entity, department, fund code and subjective, then checked against your finance master data.

  3. 03

    Routed for approval

    Invoices go to the right budget holder or department head under your approval matrix. Clinical and non-clinical spend can follow separate approval paths.

  4. 04

    Posted to your finance system

    Approved invoices post to Oracle, Integra, Sage or 100+ other platforms, and budget commitments update as they go.

Works with your ERP

Stratas posts to the finance system you already run.
