NextProcess

What is NextProcess?

NextProcess is a business process automation software designed for mid-market and enterprise finance teams to manage strategic business processes across capital expense management, procurement, accounts payable, and payment disbursement.. Designed to work with existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, NextProcess eliminates manual processes, accelerates approvals, improves financial visibility, and strengthens governance without requiring organizations to replace their core financial applications.

Its modular platform enables organizations to deploy the capabilities they need today and expand over time, creating connected workflows that improve efficiency, reduce costs, increase compliance, and support scalable business growth.

Capital Expense Management

NextProcess Capital Expense Management helps organizations plan, evaluate, approve, and monitor capital investments from initial request through project completion across multiple corporate entities and locations. The module provides ROI, Net Present Value (NPV), and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) analysis, alongside cash flow forecasting and sensitivity scenarios. Functionality includes:

Interactive Gantt charts to track project milestones.
Project lookback analytics to compare forecasts to actual outcomes.
Project Comparison tool for evaluating capital deployment between competing initiatives.
Project spend decrementing in real time for cash flow reviews.

Accounts Payable Automation

NextProcess Accounts Payable Automation streamlines the invoice lifecycle from invoice capture, coding, routing, matching to approvals within a configurable workflow. NextProcess’ platform provides high indexing accuracy, backed by a Service Level Agreement (SLA). Additional features:

The Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) engine extracts data from standard and non-standard invoices, including multiple languages.
Intelligent two- and three-way Purchase Order (PO) matching with configurable tolerance checks designed to identify discrepancies immediately.

Payment Disbursement

NextProcess Disbursement supports governed supplier payments via Automated Clearing House (ACH), wire, virtual card, and check. Payment workflows enforce approval hierarchies, separation of duties, and maintain an audit trail across all payment types. Its virtual card payments can generate customer financial rebates.

Integration and Implementation

NextProcess integrates with SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, NetSuite, Sage, and additional ERP platforms. The modular architecture allows organizations to deploy individual solutions and expand functionality incrementally.

The solution is intended for mid-market and enterprise finance teams that require connected workflows across capital expense, procurement, accounts payable, and disbursement operations, along with complex approval hierarchies and ERP integration capabilities.
