AI for ERP is the reading, checking and entering of the documents that arrive around an ERP, so that orders, confirmations and invoices become ERP transactions without a person re-keying them. Elentaria reads the emails, PDFs, portal exports and Excel files that arrive around SAP, Dynamics 365, Business Central, NetSuite or the ERP you run, checks each one against the records it refers to and your pricing, terms and thresholds, and writes the prepared transaction to the ERP in the way you have agreed. Anything outside the rules goes to the responsible person.

Elentaria reads the documents and messages that arrive around the ERP, sales orders, RFQs, order confirmations, supplier invoices, portal exports and Excel files, and the customer, item, price and open-order records inside it.
Each document is checked against the ERP records it refers to, the customer or supplier account, the item master, the open sales order or purchase order, and against your price lists, payment terms, thresholds and approval rules.
Prepared or completed ERP transactions, sales orders, purchase order updates, goods receipts and invoices, are written to the ERP with the source document attached, through the method agreed with you: API, database, import file or a person's confirmation.
Anything above a threshold, outside standard terms or not covered by the rules is held and handed to the responsible person with the ERP record and the document side by side.
Elentaria connects the inbox, the shared drive and the spreadsheet next to the ERP with the records inside it, so a document is read once, checked against your rules, written as a transaction and reflected in every system that depends on it.
Most re-keying happens in the inbox, on the shared drive and in the spreadsheet beside the ERP. Elentaria watches those places and opens a case for each document that has to end up in the ERP.
Customer orders and RFQs by email and PDF, supplier order confirmations and invoices, exports from customer and supplier portals, EDI messages and the Excel files that sales, purchasing and finance keep beside the ERP.
Customer and supplier accounts, item master and customer part numbers, price lists and payment terms, open sales orders and purchase orders, stock and delivery dates, read from SAP, Dynamics 365, Business Central, NetSuite, Epicor, Infor, Acumatica, Sage or the ERP you run.
Agreed per company with your ERP team and IT policy: API, direct database access, scheduled exports or an approved import file. Elentaria works with the method you choose and does not replace the ERP.
Elentaria extracts the header and line data from the document, then matches each field to the account, item and open transaction in the ERP, so the document is understood in the ERP's own terms before any rule is applied.
Document type, sender, references, line items, quantities, units, prices, dates, addresses and terms, taken from email bodies, PDF and scanned attachments, spreadsheets, portal exports and EDI messages.
Sender matched to the customer or supplier account, ship-to and bill-to addresses to the account's addresses, customer or supplier part numbers to your item master, units and pack sizes converted to the ERP's units.
A confirmation matched to its purchase order, an invoice to its purchase order and goods receipt, a customer amendment to its sales order, line by line, with duplicates and already-processed documents detected.
Before anything is written, Elentaria checks the matched document against the commercial rules your company already applies by hand, and decides with those rules whether it can proceed or needs a person.
Customer and supplier price lists, contract prices, quantity breaks, discounts, minimum order quantities, payment and delivery terms, credit limits and the tolerances you allow between a document and the ERP record.
Order value, price deviation, quantity deviation, date deviation and credit exposure limits, each with the person who decides when the limit is passed.
Documents above a threshold, outside standard terms or with an unmatched line are held and sent to the named approver with the ERP record, the document and the difference shown together.
Elentaria creates or updates the ERP transaction from the checked data, using the connection method you approved, and attaches the source document so every transaction can be traced back to what arrived.
Sales orders created from customer orders, purchase orders updated from supplier confirmations, goods receipts recorded from delivery documents, supplier invoices registered against their purchase orders, and customer invoices prepared from delivered orders.
Through the ERP's API, a database write, a prepared import file in the ERP's format, or a completed transaction that waits for a person's confirmation before it is posted, as agreed for each document type.
The original email or PDF, the extracted data, the checks that were run and the approver's decision, stored against the ERP transaction and the case.
Once the ERP holds the transaction, Elentaria updates the systems that depend on it and sends the confirmations that people used to write by hand, so the ERP, the CRM, the finance records and the customer all say the same thing.
CRM opportunity and account activity, finance and credit records, the spreadsheet a team still keeps, and links between the ERP transaction, the case and the original document.
Order acknowledgements to customers, confirmation replies to suppliers and invoice notices, sent in the format each party expects, with the ERP reference included.
For every document: where it came from, what was read, what it was matched to, which rules ran, who approved what and which ERP transaction resulted.
Elentaria does the reading, matching and entering; rules, approvals and exceptions decide how work moves, so a discount, a price change or an unknown item waits for the person you have named instead of being written to the ERP.
Orders above a value limit, price and quantity deviations beyond tolerance, non-standard terms and credit holds wait for the named approver before anything is written.
Unknown accounts, unmatched items, unreadable documents and duplicates are held and routed with the document and the ERP record, never written on a guess.
Every document shows where it came from, what it was matched to, which rules ran, what was written to the ERP and what is waiting on whom.
In practice it means the documents and messages that arrive around an ERP, orders, RFQs, confirmations, invoices, portal exports and Excel files, are read, checked against the ERP records and the company's rules, and written to the ERP as transactions without a person re-keying them. The ERP itself does not change. Elentaria does this around the ERP a company already runs, with its own pricing, terms, thresholds and approval rules applied.
Elentaria reads from and writes to the ERP the company already runs, for example SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Business Central, NetSuite, Epicor, Infor, Acumatica or Sage. The connection method is agreed per company with the ERP team and IT policy: the ERP's API, direct database access, scheduled exports or an approved import file. For some document types the transaction is prepared and waits for a person's confirmation before it is posted.
No. The ERP stays the system of record. Elentaria reads its records, checks documents against them, writes transactions to it in the way you have agreed and attaches the source document, so nothing about your ERP or the way your team uses it changes.
Teams looking at order entry and document capture around an ERP most often compare Conexiom, Esker and Workist. See https://elentaria.ai/compare/conexiom-vs-esker, https://elentaria.ai/compare/workist-vs-conexiom and https://elentaria.ai/compare/best-esker-alternatives for where each is the better choice.
Bring one document type that someone re-keys into your ERP today, and the ERP you run, to the demo. Elentaria is set up on your records, rules and approval thresholds for that document type, scoped on the demo, and extended to the next document type from there.
