AP Automation

Stop paying invoices you didn't approve.

Invoices pile up fast in hospitality — and when there's no system to catch errors, you pay for things that were never delivered, coded wrong, or never matched a PO. Craftable automates the entire AP workflow: capture invoices, match them to orders, code them to the right GL, and pay the right vendors at the right time. One platform. No more manual entry. No more surprises at month end.

Invoice Capture

Receive it.

Every invoice — photo, email, or file — lands in one place. Craftable's AI reads vendor names, line items, and pricing automatically. No manual entry, no lost paperwork, no chasing down paper invoices at month end.

  • Upload by photo, email, or file from any device
  • AI extracts vendor, item, and pricing details automatically
  • View invoice images alongside full transaction history
  • Store audit-ready digital records across all properties
Pay With Confidence Web
3-Way Match

Match it.

Before a single dollar goes out, Craftable compares every invoice to the original PO and the delivery receipt — line by line. If something doesn't match, it gets flagged before payment, not after.

  • Match invoices to orders and delivery receipts automatically
  • Flag pricing discrepancies, quantity mismatches, and unauthorized charges
  • Block payment on anything that wasn't received or approved
  • Only pay for exactly what was delivered
Effortless GL Mapping Web
GL Coding

Code it.

Manual GL coding is slow, inconsistent, and error-prone across locations. Craftable's machine learning suggests accurate codes for every invoice line item — and gets smarter the more you use it.

  • Auto-suggest GL codes based on vendor and item history
  • Review and override codes before syncing
  • Customize rules by department, location, or concept
  • Export clean, coded data directly to your accounting system
Visibility Across Payables Web 2
Approval Workflow

Approve it.

Keep every payable visible across your team. See what's open, what's overdue, and what needs attention — across every location, every vendor, every due date.

  • View all open invoices across properties in one dashboard
  • Sort by vendor, due date, or amount owed
  • Set alerts for upcoming or overdue bills
  • Export reports for budget planning and vendor negotiations
Structure Without Friction V2
Vendor Management

Manage it.

Vendor setup, verification, and payment all live in one system. No more back-and-forth to get a new vendor added. No more hunting down supplier details when something goes wrong.

  • Add and verify vendors without manual back-and-forth
  • Keep supplier info current and accessible in one place
  • Flag and resolve discrepancies directly with vendors
  • Maintain a clean, compliant vendor record across locations
Pay Your Way Web
Craftable Pay

Pay it.

Choose the right payment method for each vendor — virtual card, ACH, eCheck, or paper check — without leaving Craftable. Every payment reconciles automatically against the approved invoice.

  • Pay by virtual card, ACH, eCheck, or paper check
  • Reconcile payments automatically against invoice records
  • Track payment status and history in one dashboard
  • Maintain a complete audit trail for every transaction

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about AP automation.

How does AP automation work for restaurants and hotels? +

AP automation software captures invoice data — via photo, email, or file upload — and extracts vendor, item, and pricing details automatically. Invoices are then matched to purchase orders and delivery receipts, coded to the correct GL accounts, routed for approval, and synced to accounting systems. The entire process happens without manual data entry.

How does Craftable reduce manual invoice entry? +

Craftable uses AI to read and extract invoice data automatically — vendor names, line items, quantities, and pricing — so AP teams don't have to key in information by hand. This reduces errors and saves an average of 9 minutes per invoice.

Can Craftable connect invoices with purchase orders? +

Yes. Craftable's 3-way match compares every invoice to the original purchase order and delivery receipt line by line. Discrepancies are flagged automatically before payment is approved, so operators only pay for what was actually ordered and received.
