Creating transparency
Reducing workload through efficient streamlining and clearly defined processes
Clear and central platform for reconciling invoice statuses
Interface to DATEV Unternehmen online
Reduction of costs

The challenge

For blau direkt, as a rapidly growing company, the manual workflow for invoice processing was very time-consuming and unstructured before the introduction of CANDIS. The need for a user-friendly tool, which enables a transparent and structured financial accounting process and which the employees can use directly without extensive onboarding, was growing.

Requirements

Lean, digitalised financial accounting process
Transparency
Simple operation, user-friendly interface
Interface to DATEV

Success factors

Smooth process fully implemented within a few days
Modernisation of the invoicing process
Uniform, digital processing of all invoices
Time savings due to elimination of manual processes
Improved communication between the finance department and the rest of the company - huge time savings

The result

After only a very short time, CANDIS was fully implemented and in full operation - it quickly became clear to us: we do not need to make use of the money-back guarantee. With CANDIS, we were able to take another important step towards digitalisation and transparency. The automated accounting processes can be tracked down to the last detail, and the simple user interface allows employees to find invoices quickly.
For us, the tool is a real time saver and, by the way, we are doing something for the environment by eliminating the physical paperwork.

Recommendation to all SMEs

The tool is quick and easy to implement without much training for the staff. Thanks to the quick support from CANDIS and the very good introduction, we immediately felt in good hands.
