EzzyBills User Guide

Match a Bill with PO – with Approval Setting on

In this case study, we present a solution to the following business workflow (for Xero users):

  • (you) Upload a bill to EzzyBills.
  • (you) Approve the bill in EzzyBills, with the option to modify bill data, such as amount, and PO number.
  • (EzzyBills) 1) Export bill data to Xero in the Awaiting Payment folder;  2) look for the matching PO in Xero – if found, mark the PO as billed;  3)copy across the Tracking and Account information from the Purchase Order to the bill.

Step-by-step guide

1. Login to EzzyBills, click Settings,

  • Then tick Enable Approval Workflow.
  • Select “Approved” in the option for Exported Status.
