Audit log, revision-proof
40 document types
all lines of business

plico reads, checks and posts your documents into SAP S/4HANA.

More than 40 document types, from the delivery note to the payment advice. People only review the doubtful cases.

Set-up takes days, not weeks. The demo takes 30 minutes, no preparation needed, using one of your real document types.

The recording follows one document end to end: extracted, checked against master data, doubtful cases handed to a reviewer, posted in SAP S/4HANA.

What is plico?

Why plico

Why plico matters right now.

Three reasons, depending on which table you sit at. Incoming documents are rarely the loudest problem in the building. They are, however, the most expensive one nobody measures.

Business department

Your people are retyping documents.

Every delivery note, every order confirmation, every payment advice costs minutes. Those add up to headcount you need for other work.

61%of all document processes still involve paper. Deep Analysis and AIIM, IDP Survey 2025
IT leadership

From 2027 you have to touch the inbox anyway.

The e-invoicing mandate sets the date, not you. The only question is whether you solve one document type along the way or all of them.

37%of German companies use automatic classification and data extraction. Bitkom, Digital Office Index 2024
Head of Applications

The mandate solves exactly one type.

Delivery notes, orders, order confirmations and payment advices stay unstructured. They need an answer of their own.

65%of organisations manage more than ten document types. AIIM, Intelligent Capture
How plico works

From the inbox to the posting, one single run.

Four phases, fourteen steps. The only thing that reaches a desk is what is unclear.

  1. Intake

    The document arrives, is recognised and checked against duplicates. Every document gets a fingerprint, so nothing enters the system twice.

  2. Understanding

    plico identifies what kind of document it is and reads out the content. Scans, photos and attachments included.

  3. Deciding

    The data is validated against your master data. Whatever is unambiguous passes through. Whatever raises questions lands in the review basket.

  4. Posting and audit

    The posting goes into SAP S/4HANA, and every step stays traceably logged.

A complete solution, not an interface

Inbox, validation and posting in one. You do not have to build anything around it.

A new document type is configuration

No development project, no new interface. 40 types are on the roadmap.

Human in the Lead

People stay in control. Nothing posts unsupervised, and what gets reviewed is what is unclear, not everything.

More about plico

Stance and security

Automating does not mean giving up control.

“The question is never how much an AI can handle. The question is who answers for it when it gets something wrong. That is why plico posts nothing unsupervised and logs every step: you get the speed without handing over the responsibility.”

Simon PamiesCTO, operayo

Your data stays in Europe

EU data residency as an option. Raw data does not leave operayo.

Nothing gets posted twice

Every document gets a unique fingerprint. Duplicates drop out before the posting.

Every step is traceable

A complete log from intake to posting, auditable for internal audit and external auditors.

Your next release stays a weekend

plico sits next to your S/4HANA, not inside it. Upgrades stay what they were.
