AP Assistant
Supplier invoices, vendor bills and payment preparation.
Reviews aging, finds likely duplicate bills, reads invoice attachments and prepares payment proposals, separating disputed and held items from what you choose to pay.
How the AP Assistant works
- Reads
- Aging, balances, approval queues, vendor spend and invoice attachments.
- Changes
- Supported bill, vendor, task and payment-hold changes. It never pays bills, changes vendor banking details, or approves, rejects or voids transactions.
- Approval
- Every change waits for you to approve the exact action. Payment plans stay proposals.
