Accounts payable software and automation

Stay on top of your payments with accounts payable software and keep your suppliers on your side.

Get smarter with accounts payable automation software

Work with suppliers or contractors? Accounts payable software can help you to track who you need to pay and when.

Regardless of what business you run, it is almost certain you work with suppliers, contractors or employees who need to be paid.

You want to avoid wasting time struggling to use an unintuitive solution only to get phone calls from your suppliers or employees complaining about being paid the incorrect amount, or not at all. You must instead know who needs to be paid and when and then have confidence in your Sage accounting software.

Remember, paying suppliers on time will strengthen your relationship with them and help you renegotiate how often you pay in the long run.

Why should your accounts payable be automated?

You can increase business efficiency

Automating accounts payable will help you improve the accuracy of financial information, save time on business processes and give team members free time to work on other activities.


Taking this step is also useful if you want to avoid defaulting on suppliers and vendors.

How to find and calculate accounts payable

The best way to find and calculate accounts payable is to keep accurate financial records and track what you owe to suppliers.

If you use Sage Business Cloud Accounting:

  • Create or import suppliers
  • Enter money you owe suppliers
  • Review the Aged Debtors Report

Improve your small business' accounts payable

Modern Sage accounting software is ideal for finding and calculating short-term debt.

The Aged Debtors Report inside of Sage Business Cloud Accounting reveals for example, what you owe to suppliers at any point in time.
