Automated Sage Supplier Payment Runs

Every Monday, WebRun opens Sage, lists every supplier bill due in the next seven days along with anything already overdue, totals what the week costs, puts a payment run slot on your Google Calendar the day before the earliest due date, and posts the approval list to Microsoft Teams for whoever signs off payments.

In short

How do I prepare a weekly supplier payment run from my accounts?

WebRun prepares your supplier payment run every Monday. It lists the Sage bills due in the next seven days plus anything overdue, totals the week, books a payment run slot in Google Calendar, and posts the approval list to Microsoft Teams, while every payment decision stays with a person.

  • No supplier bill slips past its due date unnoticed
  • The payment run has a date in the diary every week
  • Approval happens on one list instead of five screens

Questions, answered

Will it pay suppliers or mark bills as paid?

No. WebRun never moves money and never changes a bill's status in Sage. It produces the list, books the slot, and a person approves and pays.

Does it contact suppliers?

No. Nothing leaves your business. The approval list is posted only to your internal Microsoft Teams channel.

What about a bill that is queried or disputed?

Mark it in Sage with the status or note you already use for queries and WebRun leaves it off the approval list, showing it in a separate held line instead so it is visible without being paid.

Put this on autopilot.
