01 · The challenge
Finance and export teams spent their days keying paperwork into SAP
A grower-owned cooperative running SAP S/4HANA on RISE with SAP had finance and export teams spending their days on paperwork. They posted customer deductions line by line, keyed AP documents, and prepared export and phytosanitary certificates for international shipments.
02 · The approach
Robots for the fixed steps, agents for the paperwork
TSP has been the cooperative’s SAP partner for three years. Building on that work, TSP delivered more than ten production automations with UiPath, combining robots for the fixed steps with agents and document processing for the paperwork.
The automations that return the most time each month
Deductions posting
700 to 800 customer deduction lines a day, posted to SAP with no manual intervention.
AP document extraction
Supplier documents read by document processing and keyed into SAP.
Export document creation
Shipping paperwork prepared for each international order.
Phytosanitary certificate creation
Certificates prepared for each export shipment.
