Percentage of invoice line items received electronically
This measure calculates the percentage of invoice line items received electronically. An invoice line item is a single entry on an invoice. For example, an invoice for 10 red books at $1.00 each, and 20 blue books at $3.00 each, would be considered to have two invoice line items. This measure is part of a set of Process Efficiency measures that help companies optimize their "process accounts payable (AP)" process by minimizing waste and refining resource consumption.

Invoice Line Items
An invoice line item is a single entry on an invoice. For example an invoice for 10 red books at $1.00 each, and 20 blue books at $3.00 each, would be considered to have two line items.
Process efficiency
Process efficiency represents how well a process converts its inputs into outputs. A process that converts 100% of the inputs into outputs without waste is more efficient than one that converts a similar amount of inputs into fewer outputs.
Median
The metric value which represents the 50th percentile of a peer group. This could also be communicated as the metric value where half of the peer group sample shows lower performance than the expressed metric value or half of the peer group sample shows higher performance than the expressed metric value.
