Frequently Asked Questions

How does the quote approval process work with 3-way matching?

Users review, approve, or reject quotes within Docwize before any commitment is made. Approved quotes are then linked to downstream 3-way matching workflows (PO ↔ goods receipt ↔ invoice), creating a complete, traceable chain from quote through to payment to help ensure full spend accountability.

Does Docwize support true 3-way matching?

Yes. The platform supports PO, invoice, and goods receipt matching with configurable controls and exception routing-plus integrated quote approval to ensure spend is pre-authorised.

How fast are AI-assisted document reviews?

The AI copilot processes invoices, quotes, and supporting documents significantly faster than manual review-automatically extracting data, matching fields, and flagging discrepancies for human review.

Can we keep separation-of-duties controls?

Yes. Role-based permissions and workflow stages are configurable to enforce segregation-of-duties policies across the quote approval and matching process.

Is this suitable for enterprise AP operations?

Yes. The workflows are built for high-volume AP environments that require auditability, controls, and cross-system orchestration-with transparent, all-inclusive pricing and competitive implementations.
