Online invoicing startup Tradeshift announced updates to its platform yesterday that extend its reach beyond just e-invoicing.

The new update, called Collaborative Workflow, will enable users to collaborate on tasks and automate workflow, making Tradeshift a more holistic platform for businesses. It attempts to “humanize” the workflow process by:

1) taking the platform mobile
2) automating repetitive tasks
3) allowing multiple users to collaborate on a single project, giving each user a profile picture to associate with their name.

Check out Tradeshift at FinovateEurope 2012 where it demoed its Instant Payments feature.
