ALADIN (Application for Local Analytics and Digital Invoicing) is a web based user interface providing a control framework around the invoice workflow. An invoicing and Accounts Receivable user interface centralise the rebilling of expenses (to internal and external clients), debt recovery and management information. Before ALADIN was implemented, services rendered by BNP Paribas entities to other BNP Paribas entities, were managed manually throughout three main steps:
The invoice preparation and follow-up, the booking in the general ledger (GL) and the collection of payment.
ALADIN are to automate the intercompany invoicing process and to include the relevant controls. ALADIN also lets its users create a reference system for the SLAs and an audit trail between the SLAs, the creation of invoices and the payments received. Finally, ALADIN also automates the creation of accounting entries relevant to intercompany recharges.
