Vendor payments
Tracks every payable by due date, routes each approval to the right person before it's late, and releases payment instructions only on a named OK. No missed due dates, no late fees, no surprise debits.
Due dates live in a spreadsheet
late fees find them first.
Bills surface when they're already late
Invoices arrive by email, sit in a folder, and resurface as past-due notices with fees attached. The spreadsheet is updated after the damage.
Every payment waits on one person's inbox
Approvals queue behind the founder's travel schedule. Vendors chase, ops apologizes, and early-payment discounts expire unclaimed.
Paying without checking
Under deadline pressure, bills get paid as-billed — duplicate invoices, price creep and never-agreed charges slip through, a little every month.
The late fee cost more than the approval would have taken in seconds.
The queue sorts itself. The money waits for a name.
- Invoice read: $2,150, packaging vendor, net-15
- Matched to PO — quantities and price agree
Enters the bill, matches it to the PO and receipt, and schedules it against its due date.
Flags anything off — a price above the PO, a duplicate number — before it enters the queue.
- 3 bills due this week — queued to their approvers, not one inbox
- 1 flagged: freight charge 18% over the quoted rate
Sends each approver their queue: vendor, amount, PO match, due date — approve or hold, one tap each.
Queries the freight overage with the vendor in parallel — the answer arrives before the due date, not after payment.
- 2 released on time — no fees, early-pay discount captured on one
- Overage resolved: vendor credits $86 — corrected bill approved
Releases payment instructions for the approved bills on their due date — not before, never after.
The flagged freight bill settles $86 lighter — caught by the match, not by luck.
- 0 late fees this month — every due date met or consciously held
- Cash view ahead: next 30 days of outflows, by week
The month's outflows, before they happen — holds are decisions now, not accidents.
Vendors paid on time, discounts captured, and not a dollar released without a name on it.
Same payables. On time, on purpose.
| Moment | Before Clarwiz | On Clarwiz |
|---|---|---|
| The bill | A PDF in a folder. | Read, PO-matched and scheduled on arrival. |
| The approval | One overloaded inbox. | Routed to the right approver, five days early. |
| Discrepancies | Found after payment, if ever. | Flagged before the queue, queried in parallel. |
| The release | Whenever someone gets to it. | On the due date, on a named OK. |
| Late fees | A quiet monthly tax. | Zero — or a conscious hold, on record. |
Does it actually move the money?
