How GLS Automates Invoice Processing for Faster Operations
See how multinational logistics company GLS optimized its invoice processing with Klippa, reducing errors, improving speed, and enhancing financial control.

About GLS
GLS is a multinational logistics company with a strong presence in Germany and across Europe. As one of the largest parcel service providers, the company handles an enormous number of shipments daily, including processing invoices related to imported goods. Efficient and accurate invoice processing is crucial to maintaining smooth logistics and financial operations.
The Challenges of Manual Invoice Processing in Logistics
Prior to implementing Klippa, GLS relied on manual data entry by their tax office employees to process invoices for imports. This process was labor-intensive and prone to human errors, leading to inefficiencies, delays, and potential compliance risks. Given the high volume of invoices, the traditional method of processing became unsustainable as it slowed down the company’s ability to manage financial workflows efficiently.
GLS Enhances Efficiency with Klippa’s Automated Invoice Processing

By adopting Klippa’s automation technology, GLS significantly reduced the time spent on invoice processing. Klippa’s OCR technology allowed for the automatic extraction of key data from invoices, minimizing human intervention and ensuring higher accuracy. This automation led to a drastic decrease in processing errors and delays, which improved overall financial efficiency and compliance with tax regulations.
Additionally, Klippa’s solution seamlessly integrated with GLS’s existing tax and accounting systems, providing a streamlined workflow without the need for extensive system modifications. This increased operational efficiency and allowed employees to focus on higher-value tasks rather than manual data entry.
