Introducing Rossum’s New Developer Tools

We are thrilled to unveil the latest innovation to our intelligent document processing platform (IDP) – the new and improved Rossum Developer Tools. Designed with the aim to elevate your document automation experience, these tools are here to make your processes more efficient and tailored to your unique needs. Let’s dive in and explore what’s inside the box!

Rossum Master Data Hub: IDP Customer Case Study

The Rossum Master Data Hub extension (formerly named Data Matching) enriches data extracted from documents by comparing it to datasets within the extension. It matches and enhances the information to ensure accuracy and alignment with the organization’s authoritative data records, ultimately improving data quality and decision making.

The Gym Group, a leading gym operator in the UK, faced challenges in their accounts payable (AP) process due to a lack of control and adaptability within their legacy OCR and manual processing system. They were experiencing delays in processing invoices and sought to streamline data flow to their ERP for better visibility. The IT team wanted a flexible, customizable solution that they could adapt to their specific business needs.

With Rossum’s support, The Gym Group’s IT experts integrated Rossum with Workday, importing master data into Rossum and exporting extracted and validated data back to Workday in real time through Master Data Hub. 

This integration significantly improved invoice processing efficiency, reduced manual data entry, and empowered the IT team to make customizations without relying on external support. Rossum’s modular extensions were instrumental in automating document sorting, routing, and PO matching.

“The latest version of [Master Data Hub] is great as it has reduced the amount of system management time required from IT. We now have the flexibility to make changes with a much more streamlined process.”
