AP invoice automation
Supplier invoices matched two-way or three-way against the order and the receipt, with every difference shown on the line.
AP automation for JobBOSS² from Receiving through vendor invoice matching
Job shops run JobBOSS² to quote, schedule and ship custom work, while customer RFQs, purchase orders, packing slips and vendor invoices pile up in the inbox. Fluent reads each one and drafts it into Quotes, Order Entry, Receiving or Cash Receipts, and matches vendor invoices to their purchase orders, with customers, vendors and parts resolved against your data. A person reviews every draft.
Agents
Automate the whole cycle in JobBOSS²
Ten agents, one for each document that arrives from a customer, a supplier or the shop floor. Each reads the document, checks it against JobBOSS², and drafts the transaction for a person to review.
Packing slip automation
Packing slips received against the purchase order line by line, in the unit the supplier shipped.
Purchase order automation
Vendor quotes and requisitions become purchase orders, priced in the vendor's own currency.
Quote automation
Requests for quote drafted as sales quotes, with the customer's own part numbers resolved to yours.
Sales order automation
Customer purchase orders drafted as sales orders, checked for duplicates before anything is written.
Shipment automation
Shipping instructions become shipments, every line resolved to the order line it fills.
AR invoice automation
Customer invoices and credit memos posted, so billing stops waiting on a person.
Cash application
Customer payments and remittances applied to the open invoices they settle.
Time entry automation
Timesheets and shop paperwork posted against the right job and operation.
Material issue automation
Material issued to the job without looking up the material sequence by hand.
Validation
Check every document against JobBOSS² before it posts
Each agent resolves what the document says against live JobBOSS² data, compares it with what the order and the receipt already hold, and shows every difference on the draft.
Resolved against JobBOSS²
The vendor or customer, the parts and the order behind the document, confirmed against your own records before anything is written.
- Vendors and customers, by name and tax ID
- Parts, including the other party's own numbers
- Open orders, releases and receipts
Quantities and prices compared
Each line is tied to the order or receipt it refers to, and what the document claims is checked against what JobBOSS² holds.
- Quantity against what is left to bill or ship
- Unit price against the order
- Each quantity in the unit the document gives
Ready to review
The draft shows what matched, what did not, and every difference, so approving it is a decision rather than a re-entry.
- Every difference shown on the line
- Unmatched values named, never guessed
- Nothing posts until a person approves it
Comparison
No templates, no field mapping, no model training
Legacy document capture is configured per layout: a template for each vendor, a coordinate for each field, a model retrained when the paperwork changes. Fluent is configured in written instructions, and rewriting them changes what it does.
Legacy OCRAgentic automation
Templates
A template for every vendor, layout and document type
Reads each document the way a person does, whatever the layout
Field mapping
Fields found by position, so a moved column breaks extraction
No coordinates. It consults live JobBOSS² data before it writes
Model training
Models retrained on samples whenever a design changes
Corrections become instructions, so it improves without retraining
Exceptions
Exceptions fall out to a queue for manual keying
Reasons through variations and exceptions instead of failing
Changing behavior
Behavior changes through a configuration project
Behavior is set in written instructions you control
Governance
Autonomy you can hand to an auditor
Every agent operates inside boundaries you define. Every action it takes is recorded, explainable, and reversible before it posts.
Approval thresholds
A document over an amount or outside a price tolerance goes to the approvers who own it.
Audit logs
Every field the agent read, every decision it made, on the record.
Data retention
Your documents and data stay under retention policies you control.
JobBOSS² validation
Transactions are validated by JobBOSS² before they post.
Human review
Exceptions escalate to your team with the agent's reasoning attached.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The agent identifies the vendor, finds the purchase order and what was recorded in Receiving, and drafts the vendor invoice with each line matched two-way or three-way. A quantity, price or unit of measure that differs is shown on the line where it occurs. Anything it could not resolve, such as an unknown part or a missing receipt, is named on the draft, and your AP clerk approves it.
Yes. The agent reads the packing slip, finds the purchase order it ships against, and drafts the receipt in Receiving line by line in the unit the supplier shipped. A partial shipment is received as partial, and an item that does not appear on the purchase order is named on the draft. Your receiving clerk reviews it before the material is counted as received.
Our engineers connect Fluent to your JobBOSS² company during onboarding and run each agent against test documents before it writes to production. The agents read your own vendors, customers, parts and open orders from JobBOSS², and only touch the companies and documents you allow.
Not unless you choose that. By default every agent drafts the transaction and waits for review. An approval workflow routes each document to the people who sign off on it, with thresholds such as an amount or a price variance deciding who reviews what, and every decision the agent made is recorded on the document.
PDFs, scans, photographs, spreadsheets, email bodies, XML and EDI, forwarded by your team or emailed straight to the agent. There are no templates to build per vendor or customer: each document is read the way a person reads it, whatever the layout.
