How it works
How it works, end to end
1
Cycle manager
A new cycle each month, with its parameters
→
2
Opening email
Sent on the set day, collects the files
→
3
Inbound scan
Everything incoming is scanned continuously
→
4
Auto-detection
Timesheets and invoices identified and filed
→
5
Validation
Timesheet checked, then invoice cross-checked
↑ these parameters feed the cycle manager
Admin-controlled

Module 1 · Reminder & Escalation
Automatic detection of submissionsPhase 1 tested in May, on real data, in a sandbox environment
Emails missing from the databasefixed

Unanticipated formats (PDF, image)handled
15% of cases
Phase 1 · May→Phase 2 · wrapping upwith the fixes, to fully validate the module
Module 2 · Timesheet & Invoice Validation
Automatic calculation and controlTested on 10+ invoice + timesheet pairs

Validation
clean or exception
One step remains to validate the module: the timesheet's own control criteria, before the calculation against the invoice (consistent number of days, valid entries, etc.).
Module 3 · Parallel Automations

The attendance report is already built and in testing. The rest builds on the Module 1 foundation, adding it will be quick.

cycle activity statistics
Chatbot enablement
data foundation for Module 5
Every action logged: timestamp, file, status. Full audit trail.
Module 5 · Knowledge Base
Towards an internal knowledge base
Documents
process, templates
→
Knowledge base
to validate and enrich with the admin team
→
Teams / Copilot
conversational agent
Goal: capture internal knowledge, then deploy an agent that answers routine questions.
What's next
Next steps
01
Finalize Module 1 phase 2 testing and validate it.
02
Define the timesheet control criteria to validate Module 2.
03
Start Module 3 on the existing foundation.
04
Enrich the Module 5 knowledge base with the admin team.
Admin keeps control via the Excel control file and consultant tracking.
