Enable Touchless Processing with Supplier Groups in Workday

Creating a supplier group in Workday is one of the ways your organization can start to use Touchless Processing to automatically enter documents. You can use Workday’s Supplier Groups feature to designate which supplier invoices ElevateAP should attempt to automatically enter. This lets you be selective with which documents are automatically entered.

  6. Click Submit.

 

Submit a ticket to Ascend

Once you’ve created your supplier group, submit a ticket. Once the change is approved by an administrator in Workday, Ascend will need to confirm that the change is also reflected in ElevateAP. After the changes have been synced, ElevateAP will attempt to automatically enter documents from those suppliers if the document passes all other requirements.
