Overview
The Billing Assistant transforms billing from a manual back-office task into an automated, intelligence-driven process. It uses specialised agents to prioritise billing due lists, detect billing anomalies, correct posting errors, and trigger billing adjustments via dispute resolution.
Tasks this assistant can help with:
- Prioritising billing due list items based on billing policies and validation rules
- Creating billing documents and invoices (regular or on request)
- Detecting billing anomalies, for example, unusual tax calculations or abnormal charges
- Resolving billing posting errors with explanations and recommended solutions
- Adjusting or cancelling invoices, including adjustments triggered by disputes
- Alerting and notifying users about billing situations and posting issues
Example use cases for this assistant:
- Improved first-time billing accuracy through policy-based prioritisation and validation
- Early detection and resolution of billing anomalies before they become disputes
- Accelerated invoice correction and dispute-driven billing adjustments
- Reduced billing cycle delays by guiding the resolution of posting issues, including mass scenarios
