Invoices In
Invoices and receipts arrive by email, PDF, or scan. Continia captures the data, interprets it using OCR and AI, and passes it to Business Central. No more chasing paperwork.
Approvals Without the Bottlenecks

FAQs
Will I have access to the invoice image or document when approving payments?
Yes. After invoices are captured via OCR, approvers can view the original invoice or supporting documents directly in both solutions during the approval and payment process inside Business Central.
What is continuous vendor enrollment?
Payments to vendors sent to the cloud through Mekorma’s Remote Payment Services benefit from continuous vendor enrollment. Mekorma and our partners actively work to convert as many check payments as possible—often costly, slow, and fraud-prone—into more secure electronic payment methods such as ACH or credit card.
Can invoices be processed if the vendor does not yet exist in Business Central?
Continuous vendor validation allows vendors to be validated by Mekorma's Vendor Validation and onboarded as invoices are processed. Invoices can still be captured and routed for approval by Continia, even if the vendor record does not yet exist in Business Central. However, without a vendor record, the system only allows scanning and importing the invoice.
Can invoices or payments be blocked if something looks wrong?
Yes. Both invoice approvals and payments can be paused or blocked using validation rules, approval checkpoints, and fraud prevention controls.
