Intro: Why Switch from Manual Invoice Processing?

A better question might be: why are you still processing your invoices manually?

Thousands of construction companies have made the big switch from a manual invoicing process to a digital one, and it’s always for the same reasons: electronic invoicing is faster, more secure, and it saves your company money.

These are the most typical reasons construction companies move away from manual invoicing and embrace digital.
  • Errors in matching between invoice, purchase order, and delivery dockets
  • Payments get delayed
  • Risk of fraud
  • Invoices get lost
  • Duplicate payments

If any of these sound familiar, it might be time for your construction company to seriously consider making the leap to digital.

But integrating a digital invoicing solution into your accounts workflow is easier said than done. That’s why we’ve written this guide to help you understand the benefits and challenges of construction invoicing software, and with some advice on how best to implement it.

Right away, you’ll see if you need one of the bigger softwares that are designed for construction companies with multiple offices, projects, and sites. The better company-based softwares will automatically reconcile invoices with purchase orders and delivery dockets, in a 3-way match.

Or maybe a simpler invoicing software, designed for contractors and sole traders, is all you need. These e-invoice softwares tend to just handle payments, signatures, and personal tax.

Already you’ve narrowed the options of which software is the best fit for you.

Before you up-end your entire company’s accounting process, consider carefully what you truly need from an e-invoice software, and what’s “nice to have”.

Go through your construction company’s current accounting process in every detail, step by step, and write down what you think can be automated. This way you’ll know what you need, and what’s just an expensive upsell on the vendor’s part.
