You can now see where a synced invoice stands on payment without leaving Agave. Agave reads payment progress back from your ERP and shows it as a Payment Status in the Inbox and on the invoice.

An invoice's life does not end when it syncs. It still gets posted, selected for payment, and paid, and sometimes it is voided or reversed. Until now, answering "has this been paid yet?" meant opening the ERP. Payment Status brings that answer into Agave.

Payment status is currently supported for Sage Intacct and Foundation, and is coming soon for all other ERPs.

In the Inbox​

The Synced tab has a new Payment Status column. If you cannot see it, turn it on from the Columns picker. Sort on it to group invoices by where they stand on payment.

On the Invoice​

Open any synced invoice and the payment status appears next to the Synced status at the top of the invoice page.

What the Statuses Mean​

Where your ERP tracks a payment status on the invoice, Agave shows it as is. Where it does not, Agave works it out from the ERP's payment records. The statuses follow the invoice from sync to payment, and the full list for each ERP is in the Post-Sync Payment Status guide.

To pull the latest status right away, open the dropdown next to the Update [ERP] Data button in the Inbox and select AP Invoices.

Card charges that do not need a matched receipt, or that recur at the same amount every month, can now be set to expense automatically. Describe the charge in plain language, say how it should be coded, and Agave turns every matching transaction into a coded expense on its own.

Some charges are the same every month. The software subscription bills the same amount on the same day, small purchases from the same handful of vendors land week after week, the recurring vendor payment never varies. Nobody is going to photograph a receipt for any of them, so somebody keys them by hand every month, or they sit in the Transactions table and the statement never fully ties out.

Where to Find It​

Rules live on the Transactions page. Select Auto-Expense Rules in the toolbar and a panel opens on the right with your rules in it.

Nothing runs until you turn on Automatically create expenses for transactions that match a rule at the top of that panel. That switch is separate from the Active toggle on each rule, so a rule can be active while the feature as a whole is still off.

Writing a Rule​

Select New rule and fill in four things:

Field	What it does
Condition	Required. Describe in plain language which transactions to catch. This is a sentence, not a form of dropdowns and operators.
Config	Which Agave organization the expenses are created in, for accounts that have more than one.
Coding profile	The coding template applied to every expense the rule creates.
Project	The project the expenses are coded to. Leave it off for overhead.

A condition can name a vendor, set a dollar ceiling, or both:

What you want	A condition that says it
A subscription that never varies	All Anthropic transactions
Anything small from one vendor	Expense any Shell transactions under $75.
A named vendor, whatever the amount	Expense any transactions from Verizon.

Leave Active on, confirm the rule with the tick, then select Save. Matching transactions become expenses without a receipt, coded as you specified, and then follow the same review and approval path as any other expense. Nothing skips approval.

How Rules Run​

Every hour, transactions that no receipt has claimed are checked against your rules, top to bottom. The first rule that matches creates the expense. A transaction that matches nothing is left exactly where it was, for someone to handle.

Because rules only look at unclaimed transactions, a rule can never take a charge away from a receipt one of your crew submitted.

Order matters, so drag your narrow rules above your broad ones. View History in the panel shows what the rules have done.

One-Off Charges​

Rules are for the charges that repeat. For a one-off, a lost receipt or a charge nobody was ever going to photograph, select the transactions on the Transactions page and use Create Expenses Without Receipts.

Employees can now submit out of pocket purchases as reimbursements in Expense Management. A reimbursement goes through the same coding and approval steps as a card expense. It then syncs to your ERP as an open AP invoice payable to the employee, so you pay them back through your normal payment run.

Submitting a reimbursement​

Reimbursements are submitted from the field app or the web app through the same Add receipt flow used for card purchases.

1. Tap Add receipt and fill in the expense details as usual: project (leave it blank for overhead), cost code, and an optional memo.
2. On the Type step, choose Reimbursement under "How did you pay?" and pick whether you are uploading a receipt or a gas pump photo.
3. Upload the image and submit.

Because there is no card transaction behind a reimbursement, Agave never tries to match it to one. Reimbursements stay out of auto-match, manual linking, the unlinked transaction count, and card reconciliation, and they will not raise missing transaction warnings. The vendor defaults to the employee's own vendor record, so the submitter does not need to pick one. Reimbursements cannot be submitted through the email inbox.

Review, approval, and sync to your ERP​

In the admin app, a transaction type chip on each expense shows accounting whether it is a card purchase or a reimbursement. Job costing, cost codes, and approval workflows work the same way they do for card expenses, and your approval rules can treat reimbursements differently, for example requiring approval on out of pocket fuel while card fuel passes through.

The main difference is how the expense lands in your ERP:

	Card expense	Reimbursement
Matched to a card transaction	Yes	No
Vendor	Merchant or card vendor	The employee's vendor record
Lands in the ERP as	A prepaid transaction against your card account	An open AP invoice, awaiting your review
How the employee is paid	Not applicable	Through your normal AP payment run

Agave does not move money. Once the invoice is in your ERP, you pay the employee the same way you pay any other vendor.

Getting started​

Reimbursements are rolling out to select ERPs first. Before your team starts submitting, your Agave team will map each eligible employee to their vendor record in your ERP and confirm how reimbursement invoices should be set up, including payment terms. Reach out to your account manager to turn it on.

Upload your credit card statement and Agave reads every line off it, works out whose card each charge belongs to, and matches what it can against the expenses your team already submitted. Month-end becomes a review of the exceptions instead of a line-by-line pass through the whole statement.

Reconciling a card statement means confirming that every charge on it has an expense behind it, then following up on the ones that do not. Done by hand that is a line-by-line comparison of the statement against your expense list, and the volume scales with your card program rather than with the number of problems in it. Agave now runs that comparison and hands back only the charges it could not match.

Reading the Statement​

Upload the statement PDF and Agave extracts every transaction from it, however long the statement runs. A hundred pages of charges from a large card program is handled the same as a two-page statement. It then works out which cardholder each transaction belongs to, so charges are attributed to people rather than sitting in an undifferentiated list.

What Matches Automatically​

A statement transaction is matched to an expense automatically when there is exactly one expense that has the same amount and the same date, and that expense belongs to the cardholder the transaction belongs to.

The rule is deliberately strict. Agave will not guess between two plausible candidates: if more than one expense could be the match, or if the closest one is a few days out, nothing is matched automatically and the transaction stays unlinked. An expense already matched to another transaction is never matched a second time.

Clearing What Is Left​

A statement opens with its counts: how many line items it holds, how many are Linked to an expense, and how many are still Unlinked. The unlinked ones are the work, and the count falls as you clear them.

Each unlinked charge shows the merchant, the date, the amount, and the cardholder it belongs to. Use Search expenses to attach the right expense, or Mark as Reconciled when the charge is accounted for in a way Agave cannot see. A link that turns out to be wrong can be undone, and anything you clear can be reopened.

Most of what stays unlinked is a charge nobody submitted a receipt for, which is the finding you wanted the reconciliation for in the first place. The statement is done once nothing on it is still unlinked.

Availability​

Credit Card Reconciliation is an admin tool and is gated behind a feature flag. Talk to your account manager about switching it on.

Tags can now apply themselves. Describe when a tag should be used in plain language, and Agave assigns it automatically as invoices are processed.

Auto-Tagging Prompts​

Each tag can carry an auto tagging prompt - a short description of when to apply it, like "Apply when the invoice is an AIA-style pay application (G702/G703)" or "Apply when the invoice total exceeds $10,000". Enable auto-tagging on a tag and Agave applies it automatically to matching invoices during processing.

Previewing Before You Commit​

Before applying a prompt to incoming invoices, test it on a recent one. Pick an invoice, run the preview, and see exactly which tags would apply, each with a confidence score and a short explanation of why.

Use the preview to refine wording until a prompt reliably tags the invoices you expect, then enable it with confidence.

The Export tool has been rebuilt with new filters, packaging options, and folder layouts.

Filtering​

Narrow the export by project, vendor, tag, status, amount, or three date ranges. A live match count updates as filters change.

Package Contents​

Pick what each export carries. The invoice PDF is always included. You can also add the activity log - a record of who uploaded, reviewed, and approved each invoice, with timestamps - and any related documents like lien waivers, COIs, or backup.

Folder Structure​

Pick the folder layout - a flat list, a folder per invoice, a folder per project, related pages appended onto each invoice PDF, or one combined PDF per project.

File Naming​

Choose how files are named. Vendor, job, and invoice number combine in the order that fits how your team files invoices.

Review and Submit​

Review the matched records, then submit. Agave emails you a download link when the file is ready.

You can now create custom tags and apply them to invoices to organize, filter, and communicate state in the inbox.

Tags are a flexible way to categorize invoices beyond the standard workflow statuses. Use them to signal an intentional hold, flag invoices for follow-up, distinguish pay app formats like AIA 702/703, or group anything else that matters to your team.

Managing Tags​

Admins can create and manage tags from the Configuration Settings. Add a tag, rename it inline, or remove it when it's no longer needed. Changes apply across the account so the same tag set is available to every reviewer.

Applying Tags​

Apply tags from either the inbox or the invoice view. One or more tags can be applied to an invoice.

Filtering and Sorting​

Filter or sort the Tags column to focus on specific tags, and pair it with saved views to build dedicated worklists.

You can now upload delivery tickets into Agave and link them to the invoices they correspond to.

Delivery tickets, packing slips, and proof-of-delivery documents can now be uploaded the same way you upload invoices. Agave AI automatically identifies them and routes them to a dedicated Delivery Tickets tab in the Inbox.

Automatic Matching​

Agave links a delivery ticket to an invoice when they share a contract, vendor, and project, or have closely-matching line items and dates.

From the invoice view, linked tickets appear under Related Documents. To verify what was ordered, delivered, and being billed, open Compare Documents from the Actions menu.

This opens the invoice, delivery ticket, and matched purchase order side-by-side, so you can review line items, quantities, and totals at a glance without flipping between documents.

Manual Matching​

If a ticket can't be auto-matched, you can link it to any invoice manually. From the Actions menu, choose Select Delivery Ticket to pick from existing tickets, or Upload Attachment to add a new one directly to the invoice.

Select Delivery Ticket opens a searchable dialog with previews of each candidate, with the most likely matches surfaced at the top based on project and vendor, so you can confirm the right ticket before assigning it. Already-matched tickets can be swapped out the same way.

You can also reclassify documents. Convert an uploaded invoice into a delivery ticket (or vice versa) when something was filed under the wrong type.

Invoices without an assigned delivery ticket will display a warning in the notifications panel so reviewers know to follow up before approving.

Discrepancy Warnings​

If the linked delivery tickets don't agree with the invoice, whether on quantities, amounts, or line item totals, Agave will surface a warning before sync, catching over-billings, short shipments, and pricing mismatches before they reach the ERP.

You can now view and open invoice links sent to your AP email directly in Agave.

Agave now displays invoice links sent to your AP inbox directly in your "Draft" inbox in Agave, with a "Link" icon instead of the typical AP invoice preview:

From the invoice pop-out you can click on the link to the invoice, download the invoice, and upload back into the Agave tool.

Upon upload Agave will process the invoice like normal at it will show up in your inbox in "Draft" status.

You can now view email threads directly in Agave while reviewing invoices without opening your email client.

Agave now displays email thread history in the "Email Thread" flyout from the invoice view:

This view shows all inbound emails from the email thread, including the sender, subject, and body:

You can also view which attachments and invoices were received in each message:
