Why companies should invest in digitalisation now

Digitalisation has gathered pace with the introduction of e-invoicing in 2025. The electronic invoice and the associated need to be able to post it automatically in the ERP or accounting system within a reasonable period of time has led to a rethink. Companies are not only thinking about e-invoicing, but are also looking at all processes in their organisation in connection with it.

There are various reasons why it makes sense to invest in digitalisation:

  • Raising awareness of administrative activities
  • Visualisation of processes (from A to Z)
  • Acceleration of a process chain in the company’s internal workflow
  • Shortening communication with customers/suppliers
  • Employee expertise is made transparent
  • Storage and access to documents in the electronic archive instead of searching in folders

In retrospect, digitalisation is merely the logical continuation of the automation that is constantly taking place in the production process in relation to the administrative processes within the company organisation.

Portolan has recognised the benefits and opportunities of digital transformation and implemented them with the help of JobRouter. The strength here lies in the visual representation of the process chains and the associated step-by-step traceability of the functions. In addition to the transparency of the processes, the connections of the systems take centre stage.
