Help your vendor reconcile combined payments
If you’re sending your vendor one payment for several bills, it's important they get an invoice breakdown for easy reconciliation. You can help by making sure you:
Add vendor email
1. A blue i icon will show up if your vendor's email address is missing. Hover over it, then click Add email.
2. Add your vendor's email address and click Save.
Add a memo
You can also add a short note for your vendor which will show up on their confirmation email, either the check itself or their ACH statement.
Note: Memo length
Keep your memo short as only a certain number of characters will show up in a check or statement. The email we send your vendor includes a breakdown of all bills that have been paid.
- On the payments table, find the relevant payment and click the memo icon.
2. Leave a memo for your vendor. Click Submit and close.
