First positive experiences with Celonis

In Finance we heavily use it to optimize our AP processes. We have developed unique dashboards to account for our Knauf-specific processes. Celonis especially helps to uncover hidden potentials in the processing of incoming invoices. We use a tool from FIS together with OCR software to automatically read all the data from the invoice and get rid of the manual work. In a best-case scenario, the invoice would be directly posted because the read parameters match with the approved parameters in SAP. Celonis helps to filter for companies who have low OCR automation rates and help those colleagues to improve their work. Apart from that Controlling also heavily relies on Celonis on a daily basis.

Celonis is a part of Knaufs digitization strategy and will support the transformation at least in Accounting and Controlling.
