Electronic document approval

Every document approved.
No paper, no chasing.

UNISpis keeps invoices, orders, purchase requests, contracts, receipts and business trips in one place. A document is entered once, passes approval by your organisation's rules and stays traceable with its full history — who decided, when and how.

  • An invoice from PDF into the system in seconds — the data is extracted by AI
  • Approval by financial control rules: factual check, authorising officer, budget manager
  • Approve from a computer or a phone, anywhere

We prepare the demo on data that matches your organisation. In 30 minutes you see the whole life of an invoice, from uploading the PDF to the budget manager's signature.

Why now

Paper document flow is no longer enough

The invoice sits on a desk, a signature is missing and nobody knows where it is. When the organisation has to prove who approved what, someone goes through the binders. And the demands on traceability keep growing.

1

Chasing signatures

The document travels from office to office and waits for whoever happens to be away. The due date keeps running.

2

Manual retyping

Invoice data is copied into a spreadsheet, from the spreadsheet into accounting. Every copy is a chance for an error.

3

Financial control on paper

The authorising officer, the budget manager and the accountant sign a routing slip. Who decided and when is reconstructed afterwards.

4

Budget only at closing

How much is already ordered and committed becomes visible only when the invoices arrive — and that tends to be late.

Czech Act on Management and Control of Public Finances from 1 January 2027

Act No. 231/2025 Coll. replaces the previous Financial Control Act. Public-sector organisations need a designated authorising officer, budget manager and chief accountant, separation of these roles within one operation, and the ability to prove afterwards who approved what and when. UNISpis is built for that: you set the roles for your organisation, every operation passes through separate steps and every action stays in the audit trail.

How approval works
Modules

One system for the whole agenda

Each agenda has its module and all of them share the same approval, the same users and the same task list. Switch on only what you use and add more whenever you want.

Received invoices

Upload a PDF or a scan, or let invoices arrive straight into a shared mailbox. AI fills in the data, the supplier is verified in the ARES business register and the VAT payer register.

  • Extraction of supplier, amounts, due date, account and line items
  • ISDOC import and matching to an order or contract
  • Posting of the approved invoice to accounting

Orders

Issue, approve and send the order to the supplier. The received invoice is linked to the order and the drawdown is visible at once.

  • Numbering series and order template
  • Approved by the same rules as invoices
  • Overview of open and used-up orders

Purchase requests

An employee describes what needs buying or repairing. The manager approves the request and one step turns it into an order.

  • A simple form without accounting jargon
  • Status tracking — the employee sees where the request is
  • Converting a request into an order

Spending commitments

An approved spending frame for a period — energy, cleaning, consumables. Invoices are tied to the commitment and the drawdown is visible at any moment.

  • A frame per period with a watched balance
  • Invoices and orders linked to the commitment
  • Additional approval when exceeded

Contracts

Approval of the text, upload of the signed version and amendments with their own history. Invoices are tied to the contract and the drawdown is visible in one place.

  • Amendments with a history of contract parameters
  • Links to invoices and drawdown tracking
  • Watching validity and anniversaries

Receipts

Cash purchases from a photo of the receipt to reimbursement. Photograph the receipt on the phone and the data fills itself in.

  • Photo in the mobile app and data extraction
  • Approval and reimbursement basis
  • Posting to the cash desk in accounting

Issued invoices

Issuing, approving and tracking payment of the invoices you issue. An invoice can also be created from your own system through the public API.

  • Numbering series and templates
  • Payment tracking
  • Creating an invoice through the public API

Cash documents

Receipt and payment vouchers of the organisation's cash desks with the same approval and history as every other agenda.

  • Several cash desks and numbering series
  • Approval before cash is paid out
  • Posting to accounting

Internal documents

Internal operations — reallocations, prescriptions, corrections — pass through the same steps as invoices and stay traceable.

  • Your own types of internal documents
  • Approval by the configured workflow
  • History and attachments on every document

Business trips

From the trip request through approval to the expense report. The system calculates per diems and allowances and prepares the payroll basis.

  • Request and approval before the trip
  • Expense report with automatic allowance calculation
  • Payroll export for all employees

Document acknowledgement

Send directives, meeting minutes and instructions to employees and see who has already acknowledged them. No signature sheet needed.

  • Distribution with a deadline
  • Acknowledgement in one click, even from the phone
  • Overview of who has confirmed and who has not

Company directory

Suppliers and customers in one place, with data verified in the ARES register and the VAT payer register, including published bank accounts.

  • Automatic completion from ARES
  • VAT payer reliability and published accounts
  • Shared across all modules

Modules are enabled as needed. Most organisations start with received invoices and add orders and contracts within a few weeks.

How it works

From PDF to a posted invoice in four steps

Shown on a received invoice — the other documents follow the same path. No step ends in an e-mail or on paper.

  1. 1

    The document is entered once

    You upload a PDF or a scan, or the invoice arrives straight into the shared mailbox. AI extracts the supplier, amounts, due date, account and line items; you just check them next to the preview.

  2. 2

    The supplier is verified in registers

    The data is compared with the ARES register and the VAT payer register — payer reliability and the published account. An unreliable payer or an unknown account shows up before anyone signs anything.

  3. 3

    Approval by the organisation's rules

    The invoice goes step by step — factual check, authorising officer, budget manager — exactly as your directive says. Every approver sees what waits for them and decides in one click, even from the phone.

  4. 4

    Posting to accounting and the audit trail

    The approved invoice is posted to the accounting system, no retyping. The document keeps a record of who decided, when and how — including notes and attachments.

Features

The details that make the difference in everyday work

Electronic document flow is simple only until the approver's holiday, an unreliable VAT payer or an invoice without an order comes along.

AI document extraction

From a PDF, a scan or a photo of a receipt the system reads the supplier, amounts, VAT, due date, bank account and line items. You only check them next to the document preview.

Verification in ARES and the VAT register

The supplier is completed from the ARES register; for a VAT payer, reliability and the published bank account are verified. You see an unknown account before you approve the invoice.

Tailored approval workflows

Steps, roles and limits follow your internal directive — differently per document book, department or amount. No fixed template.

Request → order → invoice

Documents are linked to each other and to contracts and spending commitments. You see the drawdown at any moment, not only at closing.

Shared invoice mailbox

Suppliers send invoices to one address. The attachment creates a new invoice by itself and waits for a check — nobody downloads or uploads anything.

Mobile app for Android and iOS

My tasks, document preview and approval in one tap. Photograph a receipt and the data fills itself in.

My tasks and notifications

Everything waiting for you, across agendas, on one list. Alerts in the app, by e-mail and on the phone — or as a daily digest.

Approver substitution

Hand approval to a colleague for a holiday or sick leave. Documents don't get stuck and the history shows who decided as a substitute.

Full history of every document

Who created the document, who approved or returned it and when, with what note and what changed. Nothing is deleted; everything is traceable years later.

Security and separated data

Every organisation has its own separate database. Two-factor authentication, permissions per agenda and document book, encrypted transfer and backups.

Accounting integration

Approved documents are posted to the Vario accounting system both ways. Without it the system works standalone and exports documents as ISDOC; other systems are handled individually.

Attachments and preview next to the data

The invoice PDF, a scanned delivery note or the signed contract sit on the document and open next to the form. You approve with the document in front of you.

Who it is for

Everyone in the organisation gets something out of it

FAQ

What people ask most often

Every organisation has its own separate database, so organisations' data never meet. Transfer is encrypted, sign-in can be protected by two-factor authentication and access is governed by permissions per agenda and document book. Data is in a secured cloud in the EU and backed up regularly. Records are never deleted irreversibly; the history stays readable years later.
