Supplier invoices into QuickBooks and Xero, matched and approved

Forward a supplier invoice to your workspace inbox. Braille reads it, finds the vendor in QuickBooks or Xero, and drafts the bill for approval.

For the bookkeeper or finance lead who keys supplier bills every week.

An invoice from Adira Finance is read, matched to vendor 1042 in QuickBooks, and written as a $653.00 bill due 30 October, approved.

The invoice lands in the inbox. The bill is waiting in QuickBooks.

Your desk today

Open the PDF. Search QuickBooks for the vendor, and create one if the search comes up empty. Retype the invoice number, date and each line. Work out the due date from the terms. Attach the file and key the bill.

With Braille

The invoice arrives by email, upload or webhook. A workflow reads it and matches the vendor to the record already in QuickBooks or Xero. The due date is worked out from the terms. The bill waits for your approval.

How a run goes

Inbox to QuickBooks

  1. 01

    Send it in

    Forward the invoice to the workspace inbox, drop it on the upload page, or post it by webhook. A run starts on its own.

  2. 02

    Braille reads and matches

    The workflow fills your bill schema and looks the vendor up in QuickBooks or Xero. The match carries the app's real vendor ID.

  3. 03

    The record is written

    The bill is created against the matched vendor, file attached. An approval step can sit in front, and the audit trail records who signed off.

How a run works

What gets written

The record in QuickBooks

Put an approval step in front of the write. The bill waits with every field visible until an approver signs off, and the audit trail records who did.

FAQ

Common questions

About accounts payable with Braille. More on the pricing page.

A new vendor is created only with approval. Put an approval step in front of the vendor write and the record waits, every field visible, until someone signs off. Nothing is created until they do.

When the invoice carries a due date, Braille uses it. When it only states terms, the due date is calculated from the invoice date and those terms. The result is written into the bill.

Every run's inputs are hashed. A resubmitted invoice with the same input hash is recognised as a duplicate and the run is never billed. Forwarding the same email twice costs nothing.

The bill waits for a person. With an approval step in front of the write, the matched vendor is shown alongside every field. An approver checks it before anything is written to QuickBooks or Xero.

Your next invoice can end as a bill in QuickBooks, approved and done.
