RPA robot came, people still need financial hard hard it?
Every end of the month, the year, the total financial officers to handle a large number of invoices. A survey shows that China will issue 200 billion annual bill invoice, or about 120,000 tons of paper, the equivalent of 860,000 mature trees.
Hundreds of billions of invoices carrying vast amounts of information, and the contents of the invoice for the business enterprise is very important data, tax certification, supplier management, contract management, reimbursement of business management, customer management, etc. are used.
A complex and time-consuming work 
with the arrival of the era of the paperless office, electronic invoice entered the public view and put into widespread use, the paper invoices that make up the various inconveniences to some extent.
But in fact, at present, paper invoices still has a very high application scenarios, manual entry of invoice information is still occupied most of the energy of most financial managers. For professional financial companies, more so, heavy bill entry and management, cost a lot of manpower and time.
And those companies focus on the process of digitization, although already get rid of paper invoices, but in the specific operation of the digital invoice process is still dependent on a lot of manual labor. Because the company is focused on digitization process, but the process is not automated, so there will be manual labor issues digital process. 
The key problem lies, invoices related to the content of important data, often requires a lot of labor to deal with. And what artificial disadvantage is that? Speed, accuracy and validity of cost.
Man's hand speed is limited, a large number of duplicate data entry work is often the single will draw a question mark on the efficiency and accuracy, labor costs and more expensive. In addition, the work itself is also more "crimes against humanity", which seems more like a robot should do. Because all the requirements of the job and only the most suitable robot.
Financial processes start another revolution: Invoice Automation 
accompanied by in-depth development of Internet technology, artificial intelligence continue to make breakthroughs, financial field will usher in a new revolution again. From paper to digital, digital to automation, automated processing of invoices flow strode toward us.
"Invoice automation" (Invoice Automation) is not a new term, it is actually the most common areas of RPA (robotic process automation). It comes to core technologies, including OCR (optical character recognition), including, usually professional platform owned by RPA.
With the "manual labor in the process of digital" popularization and application of RPA, we are resolved. Automatically extract data from invoices, the company has become the first choice for many applications RPA direction to achieve a background process automation.
As a function of RPA or specific applications, "invoice automation" can help companies achieve batch invoice collection, automate data entry work to improve the efficiency of data collection and management, reduce cost of manpower and resources to ensure zero errors.
RPA operations on bills of 
automated processes can be processed directly at any time to issue invoices, and to achieve the following:
● RPA robot monitoring e-mail address on the invoice. When the invoice arrives, it will forward it to the invoice data extraction tool.
● extracting necessary data from the invoice. If the data there are significant uncertainties, the robot will notify the staff view the invoice. If the data extraction is considered successful, the data is transported to record keeping and payment systems.
Application "invoice automation" is the subversion of traditional financial work, ticketing process, which takes full advantage of the robot, the background finance, procurement teams and other manual labor freed from a large number of repeat a single workflow, so that employees can focus on on higher value-added tasks, work will become more humane.
