Integrated Invoice & Quotation Automation in Field Service Delivery with Cloudtrac platform : Success Story

In today’s fast-paced business landscape, managing high volumes of invoices and quotations efficiently has become a cornerstone of success. While many solutions focus on large-value transactions, there’s a critical gap in addressing smaller-value invoices generated at scale. With Vitamap’s Cloudtrac solution, we aim to bridge this gap by creating value through automation—enhancing efficiency, reducing turnaround times (TAT), and eliminating manual errors.

Managing high volumes of low-value transactions is challenging due to manual data entry prone to errors, fragmented systems with limited integration, lengthy approval processes, and a lack of scalability to handle growing demands.

These inefficiencies lead to higher operational costs, delays, and diminished customer satisfaction.

Cloudtrac Approach: Integrated Invoice & Quotation Automation

By extending Cloudtrac’s capabilities to include the commercial aspects of invoice and quotation management, we offer businesses a one-stop solution that reduces dependency on third-party tools while ensuring seamless accessibility and control.

Quotation Automation Process

Service engineers create quotations linked to logged issues for accuracy and accountability, coordinators review them for compliance with policies, automated notifications streamline the approval process, and approved quotes are quickly shareable via email, enhancing communication and customer satisfaction.

Benefits:

  • Accuracy: Eliminates errors by linking quotes to specific service requests.

  • Transparency: Provides stakeholders with clear insights into the quotation process.
  • Timeliness: Rapid sharing and approval reduce turnaround times.

Invoice Automation Process


Invoices are generated by service engineers after quote approval, reviewed and modified by coordinators for accuracy, with real-time updates to key fields, and finalized through an approval process that triggers payment, completing the financial cycle.

Benefits:

  • Flexibility: Real-time modifications ensure precise, up-to-date invoices.
  • Efficiency: Defined roles and automated workflows minimize bottlenecks.
  • Trust: Transparent reviews enhance accountability between teams and clients.
