Supplier invoices in Infor,
checked line by line against the receipt
Infor AP automation with an AI agent: Lleverage reads supplier invoices from the finance inbox in any layout, finds the supplier and the purchase order in Infor, and checks every line against what the warehouse received. Clean invoices are booked in Infor, a difference goes to the person you name, and releasing a payment stays with finance.
How Infor AP automation works with an AI agent
In Infor a supplier invoice for goods belongs to a purchase order, and the warehouse records a goods receipt against it when the delivery arrives. Someone in AP still reads each invoice, keys it and settles what does not match. The agent takes that work in 4 steps, in the records your AP team already uses. Why it reads invoices without templates is in our post on template-free AI vs OCR.
Read the invoice and find the supplier
A PDF, a scan or a forwarded email reaches the finance inbox. The agent reads the invoice number, the dates, the order reference, the VAT and every line, each with a confidence, and ties the invoice to the supplier record in Infor through the order it names, or the VAT number and bank details when it names none.
Find the purchase order and its goods receipts
Each invoice line is tied to its purchase order line and to the goods receipts booked against it. When the warehouse has received part of a line, the agent compares the invoice with what came in so far, and holds back a line that nobody has received yet.
Check price, quantity, charges and bank details
Unit price against the order, quantity against the goods receipt, freight and other charges against the order’s charge lines, and the bank account against the supplier record. You set the tolerance per supplier or category, and every check gives its own answer.
Book the supplier invoice in Infor
Inside your tolerances the agent books the supplier invoice in Infor against the order lines it settles, with the supplier’s invoice number as the reference, and Infor’s own matching and approval rules run on it as usual. Outside them nothing is booked, and the person you choose gets the difference with all three documents.
Supplier invoices booked in Infor the day they arrive.
Each invoice is checked against the purchase order and the goods receipt, and the clean ones are booked in Infor on the day they reach the inbox, so payables are current before every payment run. Your AP team opens only the invoices that differ from the order or the receipt.

What the agent checks before an invoice is booked in Infor
Unit price, received quantity, charges and bank details are each checked against the purchase order, the goods receipt and the supplier record in Infor, with a tolerance you set. Invoices inside it are booked on their own, and anything outside it waits in finance with the order and the receipt open.

Infor Invoice Processing or Lleverage: which fits when?
Infor ships Invoice Processing for M3 and for LN, an automation on Infor RPA and Infor Document Processor that feeds supplier invoices into the matching each ERP already has, and lists an Accounts Payable Agent among its Industry AI Agents. We read the Infor documentation library, infor.com and the Lleverage docs on 31 October 2026.
| Infor on its own | Lleverage | |
|---|---|---|
| Inside Infor | Stronger here. Invoice Processing is Infor’s own content pack: the document is stored in Infor Document Management with a thumbnail in the AP and general ledger panels, and the Review Center looks up suppliers, orders, items and costing elements in M3 without leaving the screen. | Works in Infor through its own interfaces, so Infor stays the system of record and checks each booking as it checks one keyed by hand. |
| Invoice files it takes | PDF, PNG, JPEG and JPG from an email folder or a local folder, also zipped, up to 20 MB, 99 pages and above 300 DPI. XML and Excel formats are not supported. M3 needs one email folder per accounting entity. | Yes: PDFs, scans and forwarded emails in any layout, picked up from the finance inbox your suppliers already write to, as they arrive. |
| Fields one supplier uses | Extraction runs on a generic preconfigured GenAI prompt tuned for standard fields. A reference unique to one supplier’s template is not captured, so those invoices wait in the Review Center. Infor has fully tested the M3 solution only on English documents. | Yes: reads each layout on meaning, with a confidence on every field. Below the line you set a person decides, and only you move that line. |
| Order and goods receipt | M3 matches at header or line level, with supplier overrides in ION Business Rules and tolerances in APS900. LN matches automatically to the order, the goods receipt or consumption, and an invoice that refers to several purchase orders has to be matched by hand. | Yes: every line against its order line and goods receipts, partial deliveries included, with price and quantity tolerances per supplier or category, before anything is booked. |
| Who settles a difference | In M3 the invoice waits in a Review Center queue, where an AI assistant suggests goods receipt details, units and costing elements. In LN a failed invoice raises an inbox alert and someone keys it by hand. | Yes: the buyer or the warehouse gets a card in Teams, Slack or the inbox with the invoice, the order and the receipt, and the agent carries on with the answer. |
| Learning from corrections | Supplier, item and charge corrections made in the Review Center feed self-learning in M3 when the reviewer marks them for it. | Yes: Skills improve from your team’s ratings, with a person approving each change, and a clerk can show the agent an awkward invoice on a screen-share call. |
| Infor’s AI agents | Infor Industry AI Agents are in limited availability and purpose-built for Infor CloudSuite. The Accounts Payable Agent, listed for aerospace and defence and for manufacturing, retrieves supplier invoices, open balances and payment batches. | Yes: the agent does the invoice work itself, and your team can ask it about an invoice from Microsoft Teams or Slack. |
| Getting it running | Invoice Processing runs on Infor RPA, Infor Document Processor, ION, Infor Document Management and ION Business Rules, configured through RPA arguments. The Review Center assistant is implemented by the implementation team to the customer’s requirements. | Yes: forward deployed engineers set it up beside your finance team, and the first process typically runs supervised within a few weeks. |
| Fits best when | Your team already runs Infor OS automations, most suppliers send standard English invoices with one order each, and someone works the Review Center daily. | Suppliers send their own layouts and references, one invoice covers several orders or deliveries, and the clean ones should be booked without anyone opening them. |
We think Infor’s Invoice Processing is a sound choice when your suppliers send standard invoices and your team already maintains Infor RPA and ION: it sits inside Infor and needs no other system. We think Lleverage fits when the invoices vary by supplier and each line has to agree with what was received. More on three-way matching, on how our agents connect to your ERP, and in our ERP integration guide.
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 and connect the agent to Infor, so the first invoices come off the desk within a few weeks. From there it takes on more: your team's corrections improve its Skills, with a person approving each change, and fewer invoices need a person to look.
They work inside your operation. They agree tolerances and cost centres with your controller and set the confidence line together.
The finance inbox, the tolerances, the checks and the log are yours to configure. Our documentation and support sit behind your team, and an engineer is a call away whenever you want one.
Talk to us about either ↗Frequently asked questions
Does Infor have its own AP automation?
Yes. Infor Invoice Processing, for M3 and for LN, picks supplier invoices up from email or a folder with Infor RPA, extracts them with Infor Document Processor and hands them to the ERP’s own matching. M3 exceptions wait in the Review Center, LN raises an inbox alert. Infor’s Accounts Payable Agent is in limited availability for CloudSuite.
Can Infor match invoices to purchase orders and goods receipts?
Yes. M3 matches a batch supplier invoice to goods receipt lines or to the order header, with price and quantity tolerances in APS900. LN matches to the order, the goods receipt or consumption once Automatic Matching is set, and an invoice referring to several orders falls back to manual matching. The agent checks every line before anything is booked.
How does Lleverage connect to Infor?
Lleverage works in Infor, as one of our integrations. The agent fills the same fields your AP clerk fills, through Infor’s own interfaces, so Infor validates every supplier invoice the way it validates one keyed by hand. An Infor system on your own servers is reached without opening it to the internet, and nothing is migrated.
Can we keep Infor Invoice Processing next to the agent?
Yes. Suppliers who send standard invoices with one order each can stay on Infor’s automation, while the agent takes the invoices that land in your Review Center today: custom references, several orders, a missing receipt. Your matching settings and approval rules in Infor stay as they are, and our engineers agree the split with your controller.
What about Infor invoices with no purchase order?
LN treats an invoice without an order or packing slip number as a cost invoice, and M3 can process it as an expense invoice. For those the agent checks the supplier, the currency, the cost centre and the ledger account your rules give that supplier, then asks the approver your rules name. Infor gets no booking until that person answers.
How long until the first invoices are booked in Infor?
Typically within a few weeks, with the first process running supervised. Our engineers start from a sample of the invoices your AP team keys into Infor today, agree tolerances per supplier with your controller and connect the agent. A person checks every booking at first, and the agent takes over more as its accuracy shows.
