Paying invoices automatically

To pay invoices due, run these reports:

  • Run the Vendor Cash Requirements Report to determine which invoice scheduled payment records qualify to be paid.
  • Run the Vendor Entry Pay Invoices Due Report to pay the invoices.

You can also use Vendor Edit Payment Selection Entry with the Vendor Cash Requirements Report and Vendor Entry Pay Invoices Due Report, but it is not required. You can use Vendor Edit Payment Selection Entry to approve or disapprove invoices for payment and make changes to individual invoices.
