Questions, answered
Will it send fee reminder emails without my approval?
No. WebRun drafts each payment reminder and flags it in Slack for your review. No message goes to an AMC or lender until you approve it, so every external communication reflects your professional judgment.
What if an order was already paid but ACI has not been updated?
WebRun cross-checks the live invoice status in QuickBooks each run. If QuickBooks shows the invoice paid, the order is skipped, even if ACI still shows it as outstanding.
Can it create invoices in QuickBooks for orders that do not have one?
WebRun flags orders with no matching QuickBooks invoice in the Slack summary and notes that an invoice needs to be created. It does not create invoices automatically, keeping your books accurate and reviewed before any charge is recorded.
