AP Automation Built for Shared Service Scale
When your team processes AP for 25-30+ entities across geographies, you need more than a mid-market tool. IQInvoice Shared Services is built for GCC and SSC teams managing high-volume, multi-currency, multi-entity AP - with India compliance at the core.

The SSC AP Problem Nobody Talks About
Most AP automation tools are built for single-entity, single-currency deployments. When you're running a shared service centre for 10, 20, or 30+ business units - each with its own ERP instance, DoA structure, and compliance profile - those tools break down fast.
Compliance Doesn't Scale Linearly
Each entity has its own GST registration, vendor master, and IRN requirements. Manual validation across entities means compliance gaps multiply with volume - not stay constant.
Delegation of Authority Gets Messy
Approval hierarchies differ by entity, invoice type, and amount threshold. A single DoA matrix doesn't work when you're processing AP for a manufacturing unit, a logistics arm, and a services division simultaneously.
Visibility Stays Fragmented
Finance leadership wants consolidated AP visibility. What they get is 10 separate ERP reports, reconciled manually by a senior analyst at month-end.
One Platform. Every Entity. Full Compliance.
IQInvoice Shared Services gives your SSC team a single control layer across all entities - without replacing their ERPs or restructuring their teams.
Multi-Entity Compliance Gate
Enforce GST, IRN, and vendor legitimacy checks per entity - each with its own compliance profile. Invalid invoices are blocked before they reach any ERP. No manual cross-checking. No post-facto audit exposure.
Entity-Specific DoA
Configure separate approval hierarchies for each business unit - amount thresholds, approver chains, escalation paths. One platform enforces all of them consistently, without manual routing or email approvals.
Consolidated AP Reporting
Single dashboard across all entities. Invoice status, compliance flags, processing cycles, and cost metrics - consolidated in real time. No more month-end reconciliation from multiple ERP exports.
Entity-Specific Email Ingestion
Each entity gets a dedicated AP inbox. Invoices received are automatically routed to the correct AP team - no manual triage. Emails that fail validation criteria are automatically rejected with a vendor-facing response. Zero follow-up required on invoice receipt.
Built for SSC and GCC AP Leaders
IQInvoice Shared Services is designed for teams where:
- AP processing spans 10+ legal entities or business units
- Invoice volumes exceed 10,000/month across the centre
- Entities operate across multiple ERPs or ERP instances
- Compliance requirements vary by entity (GST, TDS, MSME, foreign vendor)
- The AP team is centralised but the business is distributed
We handle multi-currency processing, India-specific compliance, and cross-border vendor validation in a single workflow - so your GCC meets both parent company governance standards and Indian statutory requirements.
