P.11 The platform · Accounts payable

# The invoice is matched before anyone pays it.

The invoice comes in through the vendor portal with its purchase order. Vigía Legal validates it, walks it through the approval chain and builds the payment proposal for your bank. No out-of-compliance invoice reaches the payment proposal. The control sits at intake, not in the ERP.

01 Why it matters

## The ERP posts correctly. But it receives the invoice already approved.

An invoice gets paid against an email and an order that lives in another system. The amount doesn't match, or the vendor still owes the payment complement for the last one. It surfaces later, as a lost deduction or joint liability.

02 What it does

## From intake to the bank file, with a stage at every step.

### The invoice as an object, with a stage

Received, in validation, approved, scheduled, paid. Every change is recorded with date, actor and reason. The vendor sees it in their portal.

### Intake that validates

CFDI 4.0 rules, status with the SAT, the period's REPSE file, the 69-B and article 69 lists. Matching against the purchase order, with configurable tolerances. The reason names the data — which document is missing, which invoice owes its payment complement. If the SAT didn't answer, the invoice is checked again every day until it is paid.

### Chained approval

As many steps as your policy requires, by role or by person, with a minimum amount. Nobody signs the same invoice twice. Each approver sees only their own step.

### Payment proposal in your bank's layout

Approved invoices are grouped with their goods-receipt reconciliation and each vendor's CLABE. The file comes out in the format your bank reads. When you mark it paid with the receipt, the vendor is notified.

### Credit notes and payment complements

A credit note lowers the amount payable. A pending payment complement holds the same vendor's new invoices until it arrives.

### Evidence ready for the authority

Each invoice downloads as a PDF report or as a ZIP with the full backing: XML, PDF, purchase order, the period's REPSE compliance with the exact document, approvals, credit notes and payment complements, receipt and log. Up to 20 invoices per download.

03 How it integrates

## Posting and executing the payment stay in your ERP.

The purchase order comes in by file with a configurable layout, or by API. If approval lives in your ERP, Vigía Legal receives the stage by API and notifies the vendor. Your Coupa, Oracle or SAP asks for the payment verdict over the API before paying.
