The problem
The line runs to a schedule. The documents do not.
Supplier quality documents, customer POs, ASN and delivery paperwork, inspection results and invoices all have to be read, matched to the right part, order or batch, and keyed into SAP before anything downstream can happen.
What comes into Artificio
Automotive operations run on more than EDI.
Even highly integrated automotive environments still depend on PDFs, spreadsheets, email attachments, scanned records and supplier-generated documents. Artificio turns those inputs into validated SAP-ready data.

- Certificates of Analysis
- Inspection and test reports
- PPAP-related documents
- Supplier certificates
- Material specifications
Production & logistics
- Production reports
- Delivery notes
- Advance shipment information
- Goods receipt documents

Supplier, Material & Master Data Requests
SAP MM · Business Partner · Master DataCollect supplier and material information through configurable forms, request supporting documents, validate submissions, orchestrate approvals and move clean master-data requests into SAP.
Built for automotive exceptions
Automation should stop when the business context does not match.
Automotive operations are full of exceptions: customer part numbers, split deliveries, supplier discrepancies, quality failures and mismatched quantities. Artificio uses SAP context to automate the clear cases and route the rest intentionally.
- SD
Customer part number does not map
- Detect
- Show likely SAP materials
- Sales review
- Approve mapping
- Create order
- QM
Supplier quality result is out of spec
- Validate
- Hold
- Quality review
- Decision
- Approved SAP action
- AP
Invoice quantity differs from receipt
- Compare invoice / PO / GR
- Apply tolerance
- AP or purchasing review
- Post or hold
- MM
Delivery document references multiple POs
- Find candidates
- Match material / quantities
- Review ambiguity
- Continue receiving workflow
More than OCR or EDI
Automate the documents that still fall between systems.
EDI can move structured messages and OCR can read documents. Artificio focuses on the operational gap between the incoming information and the correct SAP transaction.
| Capability | Basic OCR / capture | Artificio |
|---|---|---|
| Read orders, invoices and quality documents | ✓ | ✓ |
| Extract fields, tables and line items | ✓ | ✓ |
| Validate against SAP material / customer / vendor data | — | ✓ |
| Match customer and supplier part references | — | ✓ |
| Check PO, GR, lot, schedule or order context | — | ✓ |
| Route business exceptions to the correct team | — | ✓ |
| Create or update approved SAP transactions | — | ✓ |
| Keep source evidence linked to the process | — | ✓ |
Built around your SAP landscape
Add an automation layer without replacing your core systems.
Artificio works alongside SAP ECC or S/4HANA and complements existing EDI, portals, warehouse systems and supplier channels by automating the unstructured and exception-heavy work that still lands with people.
ECC & S/4HANA
Integrate with the SAP landscape you run today and keep the automation layer independent of a core transformation program.Human-in-the-loop
Quality failures, ambiguous mappings, tolerance issues and policy-sensitive cases can stop for expert review.Traceable end to end
Keep the original document, extracted values, business rules, reviewer decisions and SAP response in one governed process trail.
Where operational time disappears
How much work is still happening between the document and SAP?
Look beyond data entry. Automotive teams spend time identifying the right order or lot, mapping part numbers, checking schedules and quantities, resolving supplier discrepancies, validating quality results and documenting why an exception was approved.
A practical automotive use case
From supplier quality document to validated SAP QM result.
A supplier sends a COA or inspection report. Artificio reads the document, identifies the supplier, material and batch, finds the relevant inspection context in SAP, maps the reported tests to SAP quality characteristics, validates values against specifications, routes exceptions to quality, and records approved results in SAP.
