Invoices - Paybox
When an invoice is approved, it moves from the Inbox to the Paybox. Here it is ready to be included in the next Accounts Payable (AP) export. Many clients have an automated AP Export process set up, which will export the approved invoices on a predefined schedule.
Clients that do not have an automated AP export process, or need to export an invoice immediately, may export invoices manually in the Custom Financial Report tool. Only invoices in the Paybox are eligible for export!
Navigating the Paybox summary list
Many of the columns available in the Paybox are the same as the Inbox, so you should be able to navigate the modules easily.
If you wish to generate your AP Export manually, you may do so in the Custom Financial Report tool.
