What is bill payment automation? Bill payment automation is the process of approving and paying vendor invoices, by ACH, check, or virtual card, directly from the system where the purchase order and invoice already live, instead of a separate bank portal.
ProcureDesk syncs each payment back to your accounting system automatically, so nothing needs to be re-entered or reconciled by hand.
Right now, AP is logging into three different bank portals.
Every vendor payment method means another login, another place things can slip.
AP drowning in separate logins
Every vendor payment means a different bank portal, a different login, a different place things can go wrong.
Payment status lives outside the books
Once an invoice is approved, its payment status disappears into a bank portal finance can't see into.
Payments re-entered into accounting by hand
A payment goes out from the bank, and someone still has to key it into the accounting system to match it back.
Separate bank portals vs. one platform — the difference is who's tracking what.
Separate portals — untracked
- ✕Every vendor paid through a separate bank portal or paper check
- ✕Payment status invisible once an invoice leaves approval
- ✕Payments re-entered into accounting by hand
- ✕Late fees from due dates nobody tracked centrally
- ✕Vendors calling AP to ask if they've been paid
One platform — tracked automatically
- ✓ACH, check, or virtual card, all from one platform
- ✓Payment status and due dates visible on one dashboard
- ✓Payments sync automatically to your accounting system
- ✓Due-date tracking flags a bill before it's late
- ✓Vendors get automatic remittance advice, no calls needed
From matched invoice to money out the door — one connected process.
We set it up. Your team just starts using it.

Sync automatically
The payment syncs back to your accounting system, and the vendor gets remittance advice automatically.

"ProcureDesk saves us 25 to 35 percent of the time we used to spend on processing invoices, which is huge."
"With ProcureDesk I am able to see who is spending and the dollar amount associated with each purchase."
