Unlock the Full Potential of Oracle ERP: 4 Game-Changing Features to Adopt in 2025

At Kolvan, we understand that staying ahead in today’s dynamic business environment requires not just innovation but also strategic adoption of the right tools. Oracle Cloud ERP continuously evolves with quarterly updates, delivering hundreds of new features designed to optimize operations and drive efficiencies. However, not all features are fully utilized by organizations.

Here, we highlight four must-adopt ERP features for 2025 that can help streamline processes, boost efficiency, and enhance compliance—all without complex implementation or additional costs.

1. Automated Invoice Processing for Touchless Operations

The procure-to-pay process has witnessed groundbreaking advancements, providing significant opportunities for improved working capital and margin management. Key features include:

• Integrated B2B Transactions: Oracle Cloud ERP enables seamless buying, selling, paying, and shipping through embedded B2B integrations with strategic partners. Organizations can connect and start transacting in hours using industry-standard formats.
• AI-Powered Invoice Processing: Artificial intelligence automates invoice capture, assigns accurate accounting distributions, and efficiently routes exceptions for review.
• Virtual Card Payments: Manage working capital, mitigate risk, and optimize cash flow with virtual card payment options, enhancing supplier relationships.

By leveraging these capabilities, businesses can reduce manual effort, minimize errors, and achieve greater financial control.

2. Empowered Self-Service Reporting

Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) empowers managers with actionable insights through standardized, out-of-the-box operational reports across ERP, HCM, and SCM domains.

• Security-Compliant Insights: OTBI automatically inherits existing security settings in Oracle Fusion Apps, ensuring data is accessible only to authorized personnel.
• Cost Savings: This operational reporting tool reduces dependency on IT teams for ad-hoc report generation, cutting costs and increasing efficiency.

Enable your managers to make data-driven decisions swiftly, fostering agility and accountability across departments.

3. Streamlined Tax Preparation

Tax compliance can be daunting, but Oracle’s Tax Box Allocation feature transforms it into a seamless process:

• Automated Summarization: Automatically summarize transaction tax amounts and allocate values accurately across tax return fields.
• Enhanced Compliance: Built-in calculations and reporting templates reduce risks, ensure adherence to tax regulations, and enhance audit readiness.

With this feature, businesses can minimize errors, save time, and focus more on strategic financial management.

4. Optimized Lease Management

Lease agreements often represent substantial contractual obligations, and effective management is critical for cost control. Oracle Financial Management’s “Lease Accounting” feature helps you:

• Track Agreements and Exceptions: Stay updated on obligations, amendments, options, and more to avoid overpayments.
• Automate Payments: Ensure accurate payment amounts and monitor exceptions, leveraging automation to reduce manual oversight.
• Maximize Savings: Avoid inflated expenses, capture incentives, and negotiate better terms with transparent tracking.

Integrating lease management into your ERP strategy ensures financial accuracy and prevents costly oversights.
