HELSINKI, FINLAND--(Marketwired - July 06, 2017) - Youredi, a leading provider of data integration and analytics solutions, today announced a partnership with Elavon Freight Payment, a European subsidiary of U.S. Bank. The agreement calls for Youredi to provide an integrated platform through which Elavon's Europe-based customers can submit payments, invoices and shipping instructions for freight deliveries.
The Youredi platform sits between the bank's freight payment system and the bank's carrier customers, acting as a "translator" to ensure the two systems understand each other. Carriers send shipping invoices in their own proprietary format to the bank, which pass through the Youredi platform to be validated, enriched and transposed to a bank-specific format for payment.
The Elavon Freight Payment end-to-end electronic freight invoice, audit and payment solution is specially designed to satisfy developing regulatory requirements in Europe. Its e-invoicing service is fully automated, traceable for auditing and compliant with the European Union and local regulations. Built on a highly adaptable invoice processing platform, the Elavon e-invoicing process makes it simple for business partners to transition and meet new requirements as regulations evolve.
"The goal of this collaboration is to simplify the process for our customers," said Elavon Freight Payment Product Manager Travis Lachinski. "Youredi will take a proprietary invoice format from the carrier and transform it to the proprietary Elavon invoice format. This removes much of the conversion burden between the carrier and Elavon, enabling quick processing of clean invoices, which reduces operational costs for shipper and carrier alike. The European Commission continues to press the industry for higher e-invoicing adoption -- this will enable Elavon and our customers to stay ahead of the curve."
Youredi Analytics and Support allows companies to measure and monitor how their invoicing/payment and supply chain processes should be running, proactively alerting them to process disruptions and errors while providing feedback to their customers.
"This cooperative partnership between Youredi and Elavon Freight Payment leverages the advanced design of our Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS)," said Youredi CEO Jaakko Elovaara. "The ease with which we can onboard customers and transform their data will greatly improve their efficiency. Youredi and Elavon Freight Payment have strong pedigrees in invoice and payment processing. Many of Elavon's customers already use our platform. This is what the industry needs, a simplified way of doing business."
