| Artsyl | Legacy | Artsyl InvoiceAction | AP Automation | ERP Financial Management | n/a | 2013 | 2013 |
In 2013, Cobalt Boats implemented Artsyl InvoiceAction. The deployment used Artsyl InvoiceAction as an AP Automation solution to replace manual invoice handling and to centralize accounts payable capture and processing for the companys accounting function.
The implementation leveraged Artsyls Intelligent Process Automation capabilities, with intelligent document capture via docAlpha to perform automatic scanning, sorting, validation, verification, approval, and reporting. InvoiceAction was configured to enable touchless AP processing so the accounting team could scan, process, and reconcile payments in a single workflow, reducing reliance on manual data entry.
Cobalt consulted HelpSystems during selection and continued with Artsyl for the platform implementation. Three years after initial adoption the company upgraded to the cloud based version of InvoiceAction and began expanding invoice volumes to Artsyls cloud, keeping operational control within the AP department while scaling processing throughput.
Governance centered on operational adoption within the accounts payable group, with staff trained on InvoiceAction workflows and minimal reference to manuals reported by internal analysts. Explicit outcomes reported include considerably faster invoice scanning, maintenance of throughput despite a personnel shortfall, and progress toward end to end automation of accounts payable using Artsyl InvoiceAction as the AP Automation platform.

Outcomes explicitly observed include faster invoice scanning, continued throughput despite a headcount reduction, and a single AP staffer effectively handling the workload of two people while Cobalt Boats progresses toward end to end AP automation using Artsyl docAlpha.
