Eqeep automates supplier invoice processing in IFS Cloud, together with Traild
Eqeep, an IFS Specialized Partner in the Benelux, offers IFS Cloud customers an add-on that automates supplier invoice processing, from invoice capture to payment. We deliver this solution together with Traild, a Premier IFS ISV Partner and new to our partner network.
Where accounts payable still slows finance down
Many finance teams still handle supplier invoices by hand. Someone types in the invoice data, codes it to the right accounts, matches it to a purchase order and chases the approval. Each of those steps takes time and can go wrong. With so much done by hand, an incorrect or fraudulent invoice is also harder to spot before it is paid.
E-invoicing is becoming mandatory
From 1 July 2030, e-invoicing becomes mandatory for cross-border B2B trade within the EU. The Dutch government intends to require it for domestic B2B invoices from the same date, although this is not yet law. In Belgium, structured e-invoices via Peppol have been mandatory between Belgian VAT-registered businesses since 1 January 2026. Suppliers send these invoices as a structured file, for example via Peppol, and accounts payable has to be able to receive and process them.
How the add-on works
The add-on connects to IFS Cloud through a real-time integration. It receives invoices through e-invoicing networks such as Peppol, by email or as a PDF, and brings them together in one place.
AI reads each invoice, codes it to the right accounts and posting lines, and matches it. New suppliers are verified through a supplier portal before they are paid. Matched invoices with a low risk can be approved automatically. Invoices with a higher risk are flagged and reach the approver with the information they need. Finance leaders can review payment risks and approve payments in batches.
One point of contact
Eqeep designs and implements the finance processes in IFS Cloud and sets up the add-on, developed by Traild, within those processes. For customers, Eqeep is the point of contact for process design, implementation and setup. Invoices from e-invoicing networks and other channels reach IFS with less manual handling, and finance keeps track of the invoices that need attention.
How it fits our approach
We use our Solution Design Team method here too. In Analysis & Design, Eqeep and the customer’s team look at where invoice processing causes delays, errors or unnecessary handling. In Implementation & Realisation, we set up the add-on to fit the customer’s finance processes in IFS. In Development & Optimisation, we review how invoices are processed and checked and improve where needed. Training & Education prepares the finance team for the new way of working.
“We’re excited to partner with Eqeep,” says Warren Steinberg, Director of Growth, EMEA at Traild. “Together we give IFS customers expert implementation and automated accounts payable in one joined-up offering, so finance teams spend less time on manual invoice handling and keep control where it counts.”
