How it works

From the bill in your inbox to the pay date in your ERP.

Each bill is handled by one agent at a time and moves to the next when its step is done. You see where every bill is, what it is waiting on, and who owns the next move.

Step 1

Reorder and buy

Run by Replenishment, Purchasing and Receiving.

More on this step

  • Stock projected by day from consumption, production orders and what is inbound
  • A purchase drafted when stock would fall below its reorder point before the supplier could deliver
  • Supplier picked by lead time, landed price, contract and on-time record
  • Every purchase reviewed before the PO is sent

Step 2

Capture and read

Run by Intake.

More on this step

  • Your AP mailbox, an upload, the supplier room, or another AI tool by MCP
  • Each document understood first: page types, bundles, scan quality
  • Classified, then gated in code at 0.80 confidence
  • Every field read with its box on the page and its confidence; duplicates stopped

Step 3

Check the vendor

Run by Supplier setup.

More on this step

  • Vendor approved for this category
  • New vendors onboarded through a secure room with your required data
  • Bank details verified by a call-back to a number already on file
  • The bill waits, and moves on the moment the vendor is approved

Step 4

Match and verify

Run by PO match, Contract bills and Usage bills, then Billbacks and credits.

More on this step

  • PO match: PO, receipt and bill line by line, never billed beyond received
  • Contract bills: the rate in force on the service date, caps, what was already claimed
  • Usage bills: storage, freight and 3PL units against your WMS and ERP
  • Short or overbilled: a billback drafted with the evidence

Step 5

Code every line

Run by every verifying agent, with Spend watch reading the result.

More on this step

  • Bucket, GL account and department on every line
  • From the PO, the contract, the bill type or the vendor's history
  • Spend against budget per bucket, overruns flagged before month end

Step 6

Approve

Run by Approvals, with the Risk desk beside it.

More on this step

  • Your roles, approval ladder and dollar limits decide who releases what
  • An agent with a level runs through within that level's limit
  • Conflicts and anything outside a guardrail always wait for a person
  • Nobody releases their own request

Step 7

Post and schedule

Run by Post and pay, and Cash watch.

More on this step

  • Posted to your ERP against the PO and receipt, as a draft until you choose final
  • Scheduled for its due date, or earlier when a discount is worth taking
  • Cortex never moves money; your payment run does
