In short

Alder is an AI employee that handles supplier invoicing in SAP Fieldglass. When the customer has auto invoicing on, Fieldglass creates the invoice once time sheets and expense sheets are approved, so Alder chases the approvals that are holding them. When invoices are manual, such as statement-of-work milestones, Alder creates them. It then follows each invoice to payment and records the status in your ERP.

  • Time sheet and expense approvals chased
  • Manual and SOW invoices created
  • Rejected sheets and invoices fixed
  • Status followed and noted in your ERP

Why it gets stuck

Why Fieldglass invoices are late

01

No approval, no invoice

With auto invoicing, the invoice only exists once the manager approves the time sheet. One busy approver holds up the whole week.

02

Rejected time sheets

A rejected time or expense sheet has to be corrected and resubmitted by the worker or supplier before it can invoice.

03

SOW invoices need a person

Statement-of-work milestones and fixed fees often need a manual invoice that nobody remembers to create.

04

Hundreds of small invoices

Weekly sheets across many workers mean many invoices to check, each with its own status.

How Alder handles it

Alder works Fieldglass across every worker, sheet and SOW.

01

Watches every sheet

Alder checks time and expense sheets waiting on the customer’s approval and reminds the right manager.

02

Fixes rejections

When a sheet is rejected, Alder tells the worker or your team what to correct and checks it’s resubmitted.

03

Creates manual and SOW invoices

For milestones and fees that Fieldglass doesn’t auto-invoice, Alder creates the invoice with the right SOW and amounts.

04

Follows it to payment

It tracks each invoice to payment and records the status in your ERP.

Questions

How does invoicing work in SAP Fieldglass?

Customers configure Fieldglass one of two ways. With auto invoicing on, approved time sheets and expense sheets generate the invoice automatically. With it off, or for statement-of-work items, the supplier creates the invoice manually in Fieldglass.

Why hasn’t my Fieldglass invoice been created?

Usually because the time sheet or expense sheet hasn’t been approved, or was rejected. With auto invoicing, the invoice is only generated after full approval.

Will Alder submit Fieldglass invoices without my approval?

Only the ones you allow. You decide which invoices Alder submits on its own and which wait for a person. Corrections that change an amount, credits and anything unusual come to you first.

Which ERPs does Alder connect to?

Alder reads invoices and PDFs from NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks and Epicor, and writes each Fieldglass status back to the same record, so your team never has to log in to check.
