Vendor Bills to Contact

Model vendor invoices with the contact and funding sources you already manage. Flow is typically: create (draft or active) → update draft if needed → activatepay → optional notify.

Happy path

  1. Create a vendor invoice (DRAFT or ACTIVE) with amount, contact, dates, and funding sources as required.
  2. For drafts, patch the draft until ready, then activate.
  3. Pay the invoice when you are ready to move funds.
  4. Use notify when you want to trigger a payer notification for that invoice.

Prerequisites

  • Vendor (or payer) contact and appropriate funding sources—see Manage Contacts.

Operational notes

  • Statuses on the invoice entity drive what operations are valid next; align your UI or jobs to those states.
  • Combine with Webhooks for asynchronous updates instead of polling alone.
