Acumatica AP automation: what to look for in an add-on

Acumatica includes tools for entering and approving bills, and a marketplace of add-on products for invoice capture and automation. If your team still keys invoices by hand, or spends its time chasing coding and approval questions, an add-on can take most of that work over. This guide covers what to compare.

What AP automation adds to Acumatica

  • Reading invoices from email and PDFs and extracting header and line detail
  • Suggesting branch, project, task, account and item coding from your own history
  • Flagging duplicates and mismatches before a bill is created
  • Creating the bill in Acumatica with the source PDF attached

Questions to ask any vendor

  • Does it use Acumatica's Contract-Based REST API, or a file import?
  • Does the bill land with the source PDF attached, the way a hand-entered bill would?
  • Can you see why each line was coded the way it was?
  • Does anything post without a person approving it?
  • How does it handle freight, tax and other charges that are not on the PO?

Where ReconAIQ fits

ReconAIQ is built only for Acumatica. It reads invoices from your AP inbox, checks them for errors and duplicates, codes each line from rules you write and teach it, and pushes the bill for your team to review. Releasing the bill stays in Acumatica.
