Press Release Summary: Stellar has signed an accounts payable automation deal with
Australian community-based disability service provider Yooralla

Press Release Body: Stellar, a leading global business process outsourcing provider,
today announced that they have signed a three-year contract with Yooralla, a
community-based disability service provider, to implement an accounts payable
automation solution.

Under the terms of the accounts payable automation agreement, Stellar will provide
an advanced invoice processing and workflow automation solution to support
Yooralla's accounts payable operations that process over 30,000 invoices per annum.
Financial details of the agreement were not disclosed.

Yooralla's existing processes are typical of many accounts payable departments,
involving a great deal of manual sorting, coding, data entry and filing. Stellar's
solution for Yooralla enables each of their 30 branches to scan invoices, which are
electronically sent to Stellar's accounts payable processing system. Invoice details
are captured using OCR and an electronic invoice document is created. Site staff can
then log in to the accounts payable processing system online to view invoices that
require coding using look up tables that are specific to their site. Invoice
approvals are routed automatically for processing electronically. Invoice data is
then exported into Yooralla's finance system at their head office, validated and
payment runs initiated.

Yooralla will benefit from reduced labour costs through the elimination of manually
intensive processing, greatly enhanced financial visibility, and reduced operational
costs through the elimination of printing, postage, storage and archival costs among
others.

"The fact that Yooralla has chosen Stellar to automate their accounts payable
processes speaks to the strengths of both our technology and our responsiveness and
reliability as a partner,\'\' said Geoff Charters, Chief Executive Officer, Stellar
Business Process Solutions. "There are a number of companies that offer document
management solutions, but Stellar is unique in that we offer a complete end-to-end
'purchase to pay' solution. Stellar is the leading choice for companies wanting to
solve their accounts payable processing challenges."

Stellar, a pioneer in the field of document management and workflow automation,
combines advanced technology and outsourced labour management to automate client's
manually intensive processes and significantly reduce their operational costs.

By offering a unique transactional pricing approach for both their hosted accounts
payable automation solutions and fully outsourced accounts payable processing
services, Stellar eliminates the need for companies to make large upfront capital
investments in new technology.

Stellar provides call centre outsourcing services and business process outsourcing
solutions to a range of high profile clients in the telecommunications, utilities,
transport, finance, government and manufacturing industries.
