Self Service Invoice Inquiry All employees and Vendors have access to IOL to look up the status of any invoice. They simply search for the invoice in IOL:

Page 15 May 2016 | Released Unrestricted © Siemens AG 2016 GSS Customer self service inquiry tool

Select the invoice (1) and click the “Inquiry” icon (2) to open a pre- populated form for questions. (3) Complete the form by entering your question in the “Please Enter Inquiry Details” and then select “Submit Inquiry”.

The form will be pre-populated with the user’s contact details. Required fields are inquiry reason, Siemens Operating Company and the Reason for Inquiry.

Page 18 May 2016 | Released Unrestricted © Siemens AG 2016 GSS Automated Survey and results providing feedback for process improvement

Automatic Survey – A survey is emailed to all AP inquiry submitters (both phone and IOL) when each C&O ticket is resolved. The results of the survey are compiled in Survey Monkey and sent monthly to our Customer Service Team where they generate the USI score and analyze the feedback. This feedback provides us valuable data to: • Identify areas for process improvements and re-train agents if necessary • Educate vendors and employees on the AP process to further reduce inquiries • Constructive feedback from customers on how we resolved their inquiry – both positive & negative • Red Alerts for ratings of 4 and below - we reach out to the customer and determine the root cause for the negative rating and any corrective actions
