AvidXchange, a leading provider of accounts payable (AP) automation software and payment solutions for middle market businesses and their suppliers, today announced an invoice-to-pay application programming interface integration with Intuit QuickBooks Online. This new offering provides customers who rely on QuickBooks Online, a fully automated, end-to-end, cloud-based AP and payment solution.

Built on the AvidConnect platform, this integration enables automatic syncing of accounting codes, vendor information, invoices and payments via combined AvidInvoice, AvidPay and QuickBooks Online technology. This helps customers with complex needs, especially those who have outgrown their AP solution provider or processes, save time spent on manually handling these crucial AP tasks.

Additionally, when compared to manual processes or using paper checks to pay vendors, this end-to-end automated process is overall more efficient as the AP process is conducted through a singular cloud-based platform. This also provides more insight and transparency into the payment data which allows customers to learn from each transaction, finding patterns, repeat payments and more. Furthermore, its digital nature enables customers to reduce accounting costs by reducing the need to buy envelopes and stamps to mail paper checks and make trips to the bank to pay vendors.
