Esker Accounts Payable Automation is a cloud platform for processing invoices from receipt through posting to an ERP. It is intended for large companies and finance organizations with complex accounts payable operations. AI and machine learning extract and structure invoice data; invoices without detected exceptions can proceed through touchless processing. Business rules compare invoice details with purchase orders and goods receipts, and configured workflows route invoices to approvers based on rules such as entity, amount or cost centre. A supplier portal provides invoice and payment status visibility and supports communication and issue resolution. The platform supports multiple entities and ERP environments, with listed integrations for SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and Sage, alongside REST APIs and file exchange. Esker Anywhere supports reviewing and taking actions on supplier invoices using Apple and Android devices. Dashboards provide AP measures and insights, while archived invoice and workflow histories support traceability. Pricing is available by request; there is no free plan or free trial.
