Bulk approval means approving many bills at once instead of opening each one. It saves time on routine bills. What is segregation of duties?
Before you start
- ECM or custom
The Kinetic way
Where to find it: ECM AP Automation
- In ECM AP Automation approvers get email alerts with a one-click approval stamp and can approve from anywhere
- Bulk approval in one action was not stated
Limits in Kinetic
- ECM AP Automation describes one-click approval stamps and does not describe bulk approve
The Pulsify way
- Open the Invoices queue in Pulsify. Filter to bills waiting on you.
- Open anything flagged and fix or reject it.
- Tick the clean bills and use bulk approve.
- Pulsify creates each bill in Kinetic with the file attached.
Pulsify connects to Kinetic. We set up the connection for you.
What Pulsify does not do here
- Bulk approve is per bill. If one bill fails, the others still go through.
- A bill with a warning may need to be approved from its own page.
Common mistakes
- Planning around bulk approve when ECM AP Automation describes only one-click approval.
- Assuming core AP has an approve step. It needs ECM or custom work.
