Pagero AP Automation for IFS customersTraditional OCR technology has signifi cant shortcomings

Many companies have been running initiatives to improve their AP processes by utilizing servicesbased on OCR technology. A large proportion of these companies are now moving away from this type of solution, since the technology has turned out to have signifi cant shortcomings. Time consuming manual handling and poor accuracy of the captured data results in the fact that the cost of using OCR technology is often higher than the ROI returned to the company.
