AI accounts payable
for manufacturers and wholesalers

Supplier invoices checked against what you ordered and what you received, payments matched to the invoices they settle, and the customers who owe you chased on time, every time.

What does AI accounts payable automation do?

An AI agent reads supplier invoices from the finance inbox and matches each line three ways, against the purchase order and the goods receipt. Invoices inside your tolerances are booked in the ERP, incoming payments are matched to what they settle, and customers are reminded the day an invoice falls due. Releasing a payment always stays with a person.

01

3-way matching

The supplier’s invoice against the order you raised and the goods you actually received. Agreed price, delivered quantity, the right cost centre. Only the lines that genuinely disagree reach a person.

02

Reconciliation

Payments arrive without telling you what they settle. One transfer covering nine invoices, short by a credit note nobody logged. Each one is matched back to what it clears, and the remainder is named.

03

Debtor reminders

A reminder for every invoice on the day it falls due, in your tone, with the invoice attached and the last conversation remembered. The ones worth a phone call are handed to a person instead.

Cash comes in sooner.

Reminders go out the day an invoice falls due and payments are applied the day they land, so cash comes in sooner and the ledger is current every morning. Your team only handles the disputes.

One supplier invoice, matched three ways.

A supplier invoice for EUR 18,240 lands. Somewhere there is an order and a goods receipt that should agree with it. This is the part nobody enjoys.

You decide which invoices need a person

Every match has a tolerance you set. Invoices inside it are booked and payments applied on their own, and anything outside it waits in finance with all three documents open.

01Tolerances you setPrice and quantity differences it may accept, per supplier or category.
02A setting per checkOrder, receipt, cost centre and bank details, each with its own answer.
03Money always waits for a personIt books and chases. Releasing a payment is never its call.

Our engineers set it up with you.
It takes on more of the invoice run as it learns.

Forward deployed engineers match the first invoices beside your finance team, so the run comes off the desk in the first weeks rather than at the end of a project. From there it automates gradually: every correction teaches it your suppliers and your tolerances, and fewer invoices need a person to look.

Every bakery line is engineered to order, so dozens of purchase orders sit behind each project, and every one of them comes back as an invoice. An accounts payable agent now reads them from the finance inbox, matches them to the orders, and books the clean ones. The rest land with the right colleague, with everything they need to resolve it.

Questions about AI accounts payable.

How does three-way invoice matching work?

Each invoice line is checked against the order you raised and the goods you received: agreed price, delivered quantity, cost centre and bank details. You set a tolerance per supplier or category. Lines inside it are booked on their own, and anything outside it waits in finance with all three documents open side by side.

Which ERPs does it book into?

It books supplier invoices in SAP S/4HANA and ECC, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Finance and Operations, Exact, AFAS and Infor, among others, filling the same fields your finance team fills. Lleverage is an SAP partner, and nothing is migrated: the ERP stays the system of record and the work is written back into it.

Can the agent release payments?

No. It books invoices, applies incoming payments and chases debtors, but releasing a payment is never its call. Bank details, credit limits and anything outside your tolerances always go to a person in finance, and every action the agent takes is written to an audit trail your controller can read.

How are debtor reminders sent?

A reminder goes out the day an invoice falls due, in your tone, with the invoice attached and the last conversation remembered. Customers who are worth a phone call, or who dispute an invoice, are handed to a person in credit control instead, with the history already gathered.

How long does it take to go live?

Forward deployed engineers match the first invoices beside your finance team, so the invoice run comes off the desk in the first weeks rather than at the end of a project. Every correction teaches it your suppliers and your tolerances, so fewer invoices need a person to look as the months go by.
