| Yooz Inc. | Legacy | Yooz AP Automation | AP Automation | ERP | n/a | 2020 | 2020 |
In 2020, Bruce Automotive Group implemented Yooz AP Automation to centralize accounts payable across eight dealership locations in Nova Scotia, Canada. The implementation targeted high invoice volumes documented at 8,000 invoices per month while addressing an operational pain point of manually processing 4,000 invoices per month at the main office, and it leveraged the Yooz Cloud-based platform to remove paper-based carrier bag workflows.
The Yooz AP Automation deployment emphasized browser and mobile approval workflows, invoice capture and processing automation, and customized AP workflows configured with the vendor during onboarding. Staff training and an intuitive user experience were completed rapidly, with Bruce Automotive reporting staff familiarity and operational use within a month, enabling approvals from any device and continuous invoice processing during business disruptions.
Integration work included a documented connector to PBS, Bruce Automotive Group’s dealer management system, to synchronize invoice posting and maintain up-to-date financials. Operational coverage spanned the central AP team at headquarters and finance users at each of the eight Nova Scotia locations, aligning invoice capture, review, and approval flows across dealerships and commercial leasing business units.
Governance was reorganized around defined Yooz workflows and role-based approval chains, developed in collaboration with the Yooz Customer Success Manager to match Bruce Automotive Group business rules. The rollout prioritized mobility and real-time visibility, shifting paper-based approvals to cloud-based electronic routing and reducing reliance on physical document transfer between sites.
Reported outcomes include real-time financial visibility through the Yooz Cloud-based platform, the ability for managers to review and approve remotely, and elimination of the monthly paper backlog as described by company leadership. The implementation positioned Yooz AP Automation as the centralized AP control plane for Bruce Automotive Group without introducing any named systems beyond the PBS integration.

In 2018 Bruce Automotive Group implemented PBS Systems Dealer Management Software (DMS) to centralize Dealership Management across eight locations in Nova Scotia. The PBS Systems Dealer Management Software (DMS) was positioned to support dealership finance and operations while serving as the core platform integrated into accounts payable workflows.
Implementation scope prioritized AP orchestration and cross-location document handling, reflecting invoice volumes reported in project materials of 4,000 to 8,000 invoices per month across the estate.

Operational integration included a documented, seamless link between the PBS DMS and the Yooz AP automation platform, established through a Customer Success led rollout that trained staff at all sites within weeks. Governance changes focused on standardized AP workflows, centralized invoice capture, and remote approval authorities for managers, with the finance and dealership operations teams as primary stakeholders. The documented outcomes include elimination of paper carrier bag exchanges, continuous invoice approval during a business disruption, and near real-time financials provided by the combined PBS Systems Dealer Management Software (DMS) and Yooz configuration.
