Experience
Claims Processing | Invoice Documents
Automated the end-to-end claim review process within Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) by leveraging intelligent document processing to extract and validate expense details. The solution retrieves claim document URLs from the Power BI semantic model, securely downloads documents via browser automation using certificate authentication, and validates G-codes and expense data against submitted claim forms and supporting documents using Azure AI Document Intelligence.
Supplier Finance Payments
Designed and implemented an automation solution to validate and filter invoices by identifying duplicates, country-specific exceptions, and reconciled entries, while cross-verifying with master data and historical payments. The bot compiles the final list of payable invoices and generates the required documentation for vendor payments. I successfully deployed it across 15 countries spanning four global regions, delivering standardized processing and saving 20 FTEs.
Payment Batch Creation
Automated the payment batch creation process in EBS (Oracle EBS Web Portal), eliminating the extensive manual effort involved in processing 60+ batches per payment run per entity, each requiring 10+ manual steps. Leveraging UiPath and UiPath Integration Service, the solution significantly reduced processing time and operational workload for the accounts payable team across multiple entities, delivering savings of 15+ FTEs.
