Pay bills

You can schedule payments from the Pay bills page or the vendor's record. You can even schedule a payment without a bill.

• Schedule payments without a bill

Payment notifications to your vendor

When you pay a vendor via Key CashFlow, we send the payment information to the email address on file for the vendor in the Email Address field. These notifications can't be edited or customized.

When we print a check or initiate an ePayment, we send an email to the vendor to let them know the payment is on the way.

ePayment

When we initiate an ePayment on the scheduled process date, we send an email to the vendor to let them know the payment is on the way. The email notification will include:

• Payment estimated arrival date
• Invoice number(s) the payment is for
  • Limit of 20 characters
• Invoice due dates
• Amount of Invoice(s)
• Vendor Credits applied
• Amount Paid

When the ePayment deposits, we send an email to the vendor to let them know that payment has been deposited. The email will include:

• Invoice number(s) the payment is for
• Invoice due dates
• Amount of Invoice(s)
• Amount Paid
• Total

Note: We don't send payment notification emails to verified national vendors.
