The new Bill Pay feature allows customers to clearly view bill-based spend and add it to their issuing-enabled corporate card program. Bill Pay helps users process payment for all bills and vendors in Spend, and better manage cash flow.
This articles show you, an Emburse Spend Admin, how to pay invoices using the Bill Pay workflow.
Once a bill is available under the Ready to Pay filter, Admins can automatically issue or schedule a virtual card to pay the invoice. Admins can pay a single invoice by clicking on the Pay button under the Action column, or they can select multiple bills in the table.
The Payment Summary window appears after clicking the Pay button. From here, Admins can select one of three options:
- Pay Today -- The payment virtual card for this bill will be issued and shared with the vendor immediately.
-
Pay on Invoice Due Date -- The payment virtual card will be issued on the due date of this bill and shared with the vendor then.
- Please Note: This option is only available when paying an individual bill.
- Schedule Payment for specific date -- The admin can choose a future date for when the card will be issued and shared with the vendor.
When paying multiple bills at once, the system automatically groups all bills from the same vendor under the same payment.
Click the Pay or Schedule button, depending on the selected option when finished. A card virtual card is automatically issued, and the bills now appear under the Paying filter on the Bills screen.
Please Note: Virtual cards created by the Bill Pay feature are not visible or accessible via the Emburse Spend Team Cards screen, and transactions are also excluded from the Transactions screen.
