HOW-TO

How to approve AP invoice records in bulk in Kinetic

Short answer

In Kinetic, filter the AP invoice list to bills ready for approval, tick the ones you have checked and approve them together. Open unusual bills one by one.

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

  1. In ECM AP Automation approvers get email alerts with a one-click approval stamp and can approve from anywhere
  2. 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

  1. Open the Invoices queue in Pulsify. Filter to bills waiting on you.
  2. Open anything flagged and fix or reject it.
  3. Tick the clean bills and use bulk approve.
  4. Pulsify creates each bill in Kinetic with the file attached.

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.
