What is automatic booking? Meaning and explanation

With automatic booking, a document is recognised, coded and recorded as an entry without an employee checking every field. Traditionally this relies on fixed conditions, such as a supplier that is always posted to the same general ledger account. Modern systems also use pattern recognition and the history of the administration to decide how a document should be booked.

For a firm, automatic booking shifts work from data entry to review. Staff no longer need to open every recurring invoice and can focus on exceptions and documents that require human judgement. What matters is that the firm decides how far automation goes, and that every automatic entry remains traceable and editable afterwards.

Autoboeker books automatically in Exact Online, Twinfield, SnelStart and e-Boekhouden when the confidence score of a booking proposal is above your confidence threshold. Below it, the proposal is ready for review. Per firm or administration you choose between suggestions, smart confirmation or fully automatic booking. Every entry shows a confidence score and explanation, is recorded in the audit log and can still be edited manually.
