The Automated Purchase Order Processing Workflow streamlines procurement management by reading and processing purchase order Excel files (XLSX) directly from Outlook attachments. Using OpenAI GPT-4o, n8n, and Google Sheets, it extracts structured data such as vendor details, product names, and totals — then logs and updates purchase records automatically.
This saves hours of manual data entry, reduces human errors, and keeps finance teams focused on high-value tasks instead of repetitive paperwork.
