AP Checks In Batch Approval

We would love to see the option to approve the Checks in Batch in the Check Review.  There is a Reject option, but no Approval option.  We would like to create the batch in AP, and have that batch be approved before creating the checks.  Currently our approvers require hand-signing the checks so they know what is being paid, but some of those signers are off-site.  This approver process would allow us to approve a check run remotely and get away from off-site signatures.

    This would be very beneficial to have as we move to a more electronic world.

    We are using nVoicepay.  Our CFO would like to release / approve the batch for payment when he is done with t he review instead of having to notify AP it is OK to process.

    I agree with this suggestion but from a different standpoint - we would like to have pm’s approve (some) batches before they go out sometimes. Especially important when sending out retention checks.  It’s just one last security check before paying final payments to subs in case an issue has cropped up between approval and payment. Obviously this issue could come up anytime in the check writing process but retention checks hold a higher risk in my opinion.

    Hey Chris,

    For approvals have you seen Viewpoint e-payments?  They have a robust approval feature before a check is cut.
