1Reason
It gets the answer itself
A supplier bills a higher unit price than the PO. The clerk asks the buyer who agreed it, and if they confirm, notes why and updates the invoice for approval.
Clerked vs DocuWare
DocuWare keeps every document in one archive and moves invoices through workflows you design, from matching to export into your ERP.
When an invoice bills freight nobody approved, Clerked’s AI clerks ask whoever owns it, draft the vendor email and update the invoice.

2Reason
Each exception to its owner
A short shipment goes to the receiving lead, and an unusually large bill to the controller. They answer by replying to the email, or from Slack or Teams, without logging in.
3Reason
Vendor emails from live ERP data
An invoice adds freight the PO never allowed for. The clerk drafts the vendor email quoting the PO line and what receiving recorded, and you read it and send it.
4Reason
Memories you can read and edit
Before go-live, the clerks read your invoice history and keep memories like: this carrier’s freight codes to inbound freight for the plant it ships to. Your team can edit or delete any of them.
