Still slogging through a time-consuming, error-prone manual accounts payable (AP) process? If you’re an Infor SyteLine user, automating your AP workflows can save time, improve accuracy, and give greater visibility into your company’s finances.
But finding and integrating the right AP automation system requires more than just plugging in a new software.
At Nimbello, we specialize in integrating AP automation with Infor SyteLine, helping manufacturers and distributors like you streamline their workflows. Based on our experience, these five best practices will set your integration up for long-term success — so you can save time, cut costs, and focus more on the work that matters most for driving success.
Every organization has its own unique invoice approval workflows, matching requirements, and exception handling procedures. Instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all approach, AP automation should support your existing processes.

Flexible AP automation solutions should follow your company’s internal rules and compliance regulations, to prevent bottlenecks while maintaining compliance and efficiency.
One of the most common integration challenges is inconsistent data between systems. Invoices, vendors, and payments need to accurately sync to prevent misclassifications, duplicate entries, or missing records.
Key areas where your systems should align include:
A well-mapped integration eliminates issues and keeps your financial reporting accurate.
Manual data entry slows down AP teams and increases the likelihood of errors. That’s why many AP automation tools leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to capture invoice details and categorize expenses. Instead of relying on employees to key in data, AI-powered solutions allow invoices to be scanned, coded, and routed to the correct approvers automatically.
Nimbello’s AI-powered AP automation reduces human intervention, helping your finance team focus more on driving business goals forward and less on repetitive data entry.
Delayed updates in your financial data can cause more harm than help, including miscalculations in cash flow or missed payment deadlines. Some systems rely on manual batch updates, but automatic syncing between your AP automation platform and Infor SyteLine provides a more reliable picture of company spending.
This allows finance teams to:
Nimbello’s ability to automatically sync with Infor SyteLine gives decision-makers the insights and resources they need to best manage financial operations.
Even the most advanced automation tools require your team’s buy-in and knowledge to be effective. Without proper training, employees may turn back to old, manual processes, negating the benefits of automation.
To ensure your team’s success, you should:
When teams understand how to use the system, they can take full advantage of its capabilities.
