4 things to know about bills and suppliers

Budgetly’s bill payments let you pay suppliers directly from your Spend Account — by bank transfer or BPAY. Here’s everything you need to know.

1. Create and pay a bill

Create a bill on a single page — choose the supplier, budget, and category, enter the amount, then pay now or schedule it. Upload an invoice and Budgetly extracts the details, or enter them manually.

2. Set up approval workflows

Control which bills need admin sign-off before payment. Set an auto-approval limit — bills under the limit are paid directly, bills over it require approval.

3. Manage your supplier directory

Add suppliers with their bank transfer or BPAY details so future bills are faster to create. Track spending by vendor and manage payment details in one place.
