Import & Export
AP Automation
AP automation built for importers & exporters
International trade generates complex, multi-currency documentation from multiple parties per shipment. Pulsify processes it all.
Multi-currency processing
Process supplier invoices in any currency. Pulsify applies exchange rates at transaction date and handles FX gain/loss calculations - so your accounting system receives clean, converted data.
Multi-document capture
Each shipment generates invoices from the supplier, freight forwarder, customs broker, port, and insurance provider. Pulsify captures and processes all of them - no matter the format or currency.
Customs & duty validation
Match customs broker invoices against POs and expected duty amounts. Pulsify's validation flags discrepancies in duties, handling charges, and ancillary fees before you pay.
Shipment cost coding
Pulsify's AI codes each shipment-related invoice to the correct GL account and GST treatment, and applies your cost centres and tracking categories by learning from how you've coded freight, duty, insurance, and handling before.
Why Import & Export teams choose Pulsify
Why Import & Export teams choose Pulsify
"Every shipment has 6+ invoices"
Supplier, freight forwarder, customs broker, port charges, insurance, cartage - each shipment generates a stack of documents in different formats and currencies. Pulsify captures and codes them all.
"FX rates are applied inconsistently"
When AP keys exchange rates manually, errors are inevitable and corrections are expensive. Pulsify processes multi-currency invoices with rates applied at the correct transaction date.
"Nobody checks the customs broker invoice"
Duty amounts, handling fees, and government charges get paid without validation because they're complex and time-consuming to check. Pulsify validates them against expected amounts automatically.
"Documentation is scattered across inboxes"
Auditors want to see the full paper trail for every import. When invoices are processed through Pulsify, every document has a complete audit trail - who processed it, how it was coded, who approved it.
