FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Hold Already-Paid Bills:

Can this stop a payment that has already started?

No. Your AP clerk gets an immediate alert because a hold may no longer stop that payment.

What happens if the paid bill is only a partial match?

Your AP clerk reviews partial payments, credits with a balance, and uncertain supplier matches. The Agent does not place an automatic hold.

What do I need to set up before this runs?

You connect your bill-pay queue and accounting books, then map suppliers across both. You choose a scan schedule before payment cutoffs. You grant bill-hold permission.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
