In short

How do I automatically chase overdue supplier invoices matched to Lavu POS purchases?

WebRun reads recent purchase orders from Lavu every Monday, matches them against bills in QuickBooks, and flags any invoice that is overdue or missing. Follow-up emails to each supplier are drafted in Gmail for the manager to approve before sending, and a summary is posted to Slack so nothing waits until month-end to be discovered.

  • Missing and overdue supplier invoices caught weekly before they become aged payables
  • Follow-up emails drafted automatically and staged for one-click manager approval
  • Purchase orders and QuickBooks bills kept in sync across every supplier

Questions, answered

Will it send the follow-up emails to suppliers automatically?

No. Every follow-up email is drafted in Gmail and left unsent for the manager to review, edit, and approve before any message goes to a supplier.

What if an invoice is in QuickBooks but not yet matched to a Lavu order?

It flags those as unmatched bills in the Slack summary so the manager can investigate whether the bill is correct or whether it needs a matching purchase order created in Lavu.

How far back does it look for purchase orders?

By default it looks at the past 30 days of Lavu purchase orders. You can adjust the lookback window during setup to match your typical supplier payment terms.
