WARECONNECT FOR JOBPAC

Jobpac invoice automation for construction accounts payable teams

Beyond OCR: resolve missing Job Number, Purchase Order and Location information before invoices continue to Jobpac.

Illustrative construction accounts payable team discussing invoice processing

WareConnect helps Jobpac AP teams capture, validate and review supplier invoices before they continue to the configured Jobpac process. When a Job Number, Purchase Order or Location is missing or unclear, users can review the invoice and available processing information and complete the required verification.

For Jobpac accounts payable teams, WareConnect combines invoice capture, validation, supplier matching, duplicate checking and human verification, so your team can focus on invoices that genuinely need attention instead of manually checking every invoice.

Why OCR alone does not solve Jobpac invoice processing

OCR can capture the information printed on a supplier invoice. The problem starts when the invoice does not contain the Job Number, Purchase Order or Location information your Jobpac process needs.

A supplier may provide a site address, suburb, delivery address, project reference or description without providing the exact reference required for processing. Your AP team then has to search, interpret and verify the correct allocation before the invoice can continue.

Illustrative construction finance team checking missing invoice references
Missing Job Number

Manual searching, allocation uncertainty and lower straight-through processing.

Unclear Purchase Order

More review, more follow-up and higher risk of incorrect coding.

Location-based overhead invoices

Unclear routing if the invoice does not belong to a PO or Job Number.

Supplier data mismatches

ABN, bank-detail, Account Code or GST issues that must be reviewed before handoff.

How WareConnect works with Jobpac

WareConnect works before the configured Jobpac Accounts Payable process. It helps capture, validate, allocate and verify supplier invoice information before the agreed handoff to Jobpac.

Jobpac remains central to the downstream construction finance process. WareConnect does not replace Jobpac.

Jobpac

Receives Jobpac-ready invoice CSV data and invoice PDF during posting.

Remains central to downstream processing and approval workflows.

Customer-approved Jobpac data remains the reference point.

WareConnect

Prepares, validates, reviews and controls invoice and credit note data before Jobpac handoff.

Reduces double handling when references are missing or unclear before posting.

Uses Lookup Database imports or sync where endpoint access is available.

  1. Receive invoice
  2. Capture invoice data
  3. Check Jobpac reference data
  4. Resolve Job / PO / Location
  5. Validate supplier and invoice information
  6. Human verification where required
  7. Prepare data for Jobpac
  8. Continue to the configured Jobpac process

Resolve missing Job, Purchase Order and Location information before Jobpac

Allocation Intelligence is WareConnect’s ability to use invoice clues, lookup data, supplier history, WorkID context and verified human decisions to suggest the correct PO / Job Number / Location allocation before Jobpac handoff.

WareConnect reads available invoice clues, checks them against customer-approved Jobpac reference data, suggests the likely allocation path, and presents the result for review in Bill View where needed.

Once a human confirms the allocation, WareConnect can remember that verified decision within the customer environment and improve future suggestions.

Supplier history

Suggests patterns based on previous verified supplier behaviour.

WorkID context

Limits suggestions to the customer and WorkIDs the user is authorised to access.

Invoice text pattern

Recognises recurring text and description patterns from the same supplier.

Default supplier allocation

Supports default Job Number or Location where customer rules allow.

Verified human decision

Feeds customer-specific Allocation Memory for future suggestions.

Use customer-approved Jobpac reference data

WareConnect uses a Jobpac-aligned Lookup Database populated from customer-approved Excel or CSV exports from Jobpac. Where API endpoint access is provided by the customer, a manual sync tool can be used to refresh lookup data.

This means WareConnect does not require direct Jobpac API access to deliver the core allocation and validation value. API-based sync can be used where endpoint access is available, but the Lookup Database gives customers a practical path to modernise invoice processing without waiting on API access.

Supplier Master

Supplier / Creditor Code, ABN, BSB, Account Number, Account Code.

Job Number details

Job Number, job address, site information and related job reference data.

PO details

Purchase Order references and related supplier / job information.

Location details

Location-based overhead allocation details.

Default supplier rules

Default supplier allocation to a Job Number or Location, and default supplier descriptions.

Sync model

Excel/CSV import, plus manual sync where customer-provided API endpoint access is available.

Improve future allocations using previously verified decisions

Allocation Memory is customer-specific. WareConnect does not share allocation behaviour across customers.

Within each customer environment, WareConnect can learn from verified allocation decisions including supplier behaviour, supplier plus address patterns, supplier plus WorkID, supplier plus invoice text patterns, supplier default allocation, previous verified Job Number decisions, previous verified PO decisions, previous verified Location decisions and default supplier descriptions.

Review and verify supplier invoices before Jobpac handoff

Bill View lets users compare the source invoice with the information prepared by WareConnect, review processing evidence, inspect allocation fields and complete the available verification action.

Review is a further-review stage. It is not a Jobpac approval workflow.

Bill View gives users one workspace to review, correct and verify invoices and credit notes before they are prepared for Jobpac.

Users can view the document image, captured fields, validation messages, suggested values, duplicate status, payment-detail alerts, audit trail and comment history. They can correct values, confirm PO / Job Number / Location allocation, review supplier and bank-detail mismatches, add comments, send the document for review, postpone, cancel, verify, or resolve export issues where configured.

Verification

Documents needing field confirmation, allocation review, correction or validation before they can proceed.

Review

Documents deliberately sent for further checking or business review.

Exceptions

Documents that cannot safely proceed due to duplicate, mismatch, validation or business-rule issues.

Jobpac Ready

Invoices and credit notes that have passed required checks and are ready for Jobpac handoff.

Posted to Jobpac

Records where WareConnect has exported both invoice CSV data and invoice PDF to Jobpac during posting.

Import Failed

Documents that cannot be classified or imported correctly and require review, fix and reprocess where appropriate.

Validate supplier and invoice information before Jobpac

WareConnect provides multiple validation controls before Jobpac handoff.

  • Live ABN registry lookup helps validate supplier ABN details. ABN mismatches are blocked until reviewed.
  • Supplier BSB, Account Number and Account Code mismatches are blocked until reviewed to support fraud-prevention and payment-risk controls.
  • GST validation rules, including GST-free supplier rules where configured, help identify tax treatment issues before Jobpac handoff. GST treatment mismatches are blocked until reviewed.
  • Supplier-level invoice number, PO number and Job Number format rules help standardise validation and reduce repeat exceptions.
  • Configured line-item split support can help allocate invoice lines across the required cost codes or types where the customer workflow requires it.

Duplicate checks before Jobpac

WareConnect blocks confirmed duplicate matches and flags suspected duplicates for review, based on exact match, same-creditor and cross-creditor duplicate logic.

Exact match

Creditor Code + Invoice Number.

Same-creditor variation

Creditor + Invoice Date + Net/Gross Amount.

Cross-creditor duplicate

Invoice Number + Total Amount match exactly, but the creditor is different. This helps catch duplicate supplier or subcontractor setup issues.

Supplier Statement Matching for Jobpac accounts payable teams

WareConnect includes Supplier Statement Matching in the base commercial offer.

Supplier Statement Matching helps AP teams compare supplier statements against processed invoices and credit notes, identify missing invoices, duplicate invoices, amount mismatches, missing credit notes, aged balance differences and supplier follow-up items.

Statements can be processed from PDF, with options for Excel and CSV depending on the supplier format and agreed workflow.

Invoice document capture and classification

Invoice document capture and classification

Suppliers may send one PDF containing multiple invoices, multiple invoices plus supporting documents, or files that have been incorrectly combined or split. WareConnect supports page split and page merge to help correct document structure before processing.

WareConnect can classify incoming documents such as invoices, credit notes and supplier statements, helping route each document to the right workflow. If a document cannot be classified or imported correctly, it is marked as Import Failed so users can review the issue, apply the required fix and reprocess where appropriate.

Supported file formats include PDF, Word, Excel, JPG, PNG and TIFF. WareConnect is also designed to handle supplier invoice template or layout changes through capture configuration, validation rules and human review where needed.

Search invoices and supporting evidence in the Repository

Search invoices and supporting evidence in the Repository

WareConnect includes a searchable Repository for invoices, credit notes, statements, supporting documents, validation history, comments, audit trail, processing status and supplier communication support.

Users can search or filter by supplier, invoice number, credit note number, statement number, Job Number, PO number, Location, WorkID, status, received date, invoice date, amount, ABN, duplicate status, bank-detail mismatch, comments, notes and export status.

The Repository helps AP teams respond to supplier queries without searching through email folders, shared drives or disconnected document stores.
