Why this helps
A vendor invoice sent privately can be easy to overlook while switching between delivery, customer, and finance work.

- Reduces the chance of an invoice lingering unseen
- Keeps document work connected to its original context

- 3Give Notis a single instruction to start an Extracta ai extraction when a DM shares a vendor invoice and requests processing.
