b-process’ billManager™ is an ASP e-invoice processing platform enabling tax compliant dematerialization of the invoices. It provides companies with a single portal to meet their needs for traceability and invoicing process optimization.
The platform is perfectly adapted to the needs of each project thanks to its modular architecture and its ability to integrate / communicate with even the most varied corporate data systems.
billManager™ can lower your invoice processing costs (printing, mailing, forwarding, follow-up, accounting entry, archiving) by 60%. The original electronic invoices are available instantaneously and at any moment on the platform for the duration of their 10-year legal archiving period.
Hosted mode services
billManager™ is unobtrusive in the I.T. system and requires no licence acquisition. All the functionalities are accessible via the Internet without any installation on the customer’s workstation or investment in technical infrastructures.
A shared platform
The connector set up between the information system and billManager™ is reusable for all buyers / suppliers. Each one of them can also integrate the invoices of all of their buyers / suppliers through a single entry connector to billManager™.
A collaborative platform
Companies work with their suppliers on the same tool and can share with them all of the invoicing data (integration status or pay authorization tracing, disputes and resolution status, online data correction/enrichment, informal dialog via messaging center, publication/uploading of documents attached to the invoices).

The platform is regularly submitted to security audits such as ‘Vulnerability Threat Assessment’ carried out by independent bodies or commissioned by customers.
