Automate your cannabis AP process with ProcureDesk to maintain compliance, streamline vendor payments, and reduce administrative burden while improving financial transparency.
Cannabis businesses face unique challenges with accounts payable management that go far beyond typical operational concerns. You’re juggling seed-to-sale tracking requirements, navigating complex state regulations, and managing vendor payments while ensuring every transaction maintains audit-ready documentation. Manual AP processes create compliance gaps, delay critical supplier payments for cultivation supplies and packaging materials, and expose your operation to regulatory scrutiny that could jeopardize your license.

“We were experiencing late payments and potential missed invoices that didn’t get processed in the stack of papers. When board members wanted to review certain expenses, we had to physically scan documents. It just wasn’t a truly transparent process,”
“Anybody within the company could order goods or services, and approval would only happen after the invoice arrived. We needed to put controls in place, and ProcureDesk became one of those must-have solutions.”
“There was a general lack of clarity and transparency around our budgets. Because we wouldn’t get invoiced right away, we would pull budget reports in Quickbooks, but they were never fully accurate or up-to-date because of those pending orders.”
