The Challenge
The client came to us looking to enhance their QA and development process for testing APIs. Their current QA process lacked proper structure, leading to an unorganized process where random builds were sent for QA without a set schedule.
Additionally, there was a lack of standard documentation for common QA procedures, such as bug reports, test case management, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT). As a result, API test documents often contained discrepancies and mismatched data, adding another layer of complexity to the process.
The goal was to create a solution that would organize and standardize the client’s API testing, saving their IT department hours of unnecessary work and allowing their development process to scale with current and future business needs.
Our Solution
Here’s how we solved the client’s challenges:
Power Automation
The team implemented a Power Automate flow to retrieve emails each morning for processing, which extracts PDF attachments and saves them to a designated OneDrive folder. This upgraded the platform’s 25-email limit to up to a staggering 10,000 emails per day.
Desktop Flow
The Power Automate flow was set up to trigger an additional automated flow for desktop. The desktop component handles the actual data entry into their SAP Ariba system, therefore automating the entire invoice process from start to finish.
AI Document Intelligence Integration
AI document intelligence integration was used to extract the required data from the PDFs. The system is able to log into the SAP Ariba portal, enter invoice details, upload attachments, and validate totals. This process is further backed by an intelligent mapping system that handles Dynamic IDs to ensure accurate data entry.

I wanted to take a moment to highlight and commemorate the efforts from our dedicated PIO team. To preface, the projects we work on here are complex, with rigid objectives, budgets, and timelines. Expectations are always high and are ever-changing. From the start of our relationship, the IO team was able to exceed expectations and make our business wishes a reality.
Over the past year I have worked with them, they have worked very hard to understand our highly customized system and troubleshoot things with little or no documentation while managing to keep the business up and running normally. Without the hard work and dedication they have shown, I know we would have had some issues causing downtime or lost production. I am looking forward to continuing working them in the next year as well.
I have been working with Programmers IO for more than 5 years now and I have been pleased with all projects and developers that I have worked with. We have had a few issues here and there but they have always fixed and made it right. They have been an excellent addition to our business.
