How do Invoice Payments work?

NorthOne’s Invoice Payments feature allows you to upload and store vendor/supplier invoices, as well as pay those invoices directly from your NorthOne Account. And with our convenient scheduling functionality, you can schedule future payments to go out on the invoice due date.

How do I add an invoice?

You can add an invoice by one of three ways:

1. Selecting ‘Scan’ invoice. This will prompt you to upload it, and NorthOne will automatically ingest the invoice details and create a draft upload for you to review.

2. Selecting ‘Manually Create’ invoice. This will prompt you to manually enter in the details of the invoice.

3. Emailing your invoice to ‘[email protected].’ NorthOne will automatically ingest the invoice details and create a draft upload for you to review.

Note: Only email addresses associated with your account will be able to send invoices. Contact our Customer Care team from the ‘Support’ tab if you would like to whitelist another email address.

  2. From the top menu, select ‘Invoice Payments’

How do I pay an invoice?

Once an invoice has been uploaded, you can choose to pay an invoice, or schedule a payment for later, by following these steps:

1. Select the ‘Pay Invoice’ button on the uploaded invoice

2. Enter the required payment details:

a. Method of payment (e.g. Standard ACH, Same-Day ACH*, wire transfer**, etc).

b. Choose where you’d like the money to come from (e.g. Deposit Account, or one of your envelopes***)

c. Choose the date you’d like to pay the invoice (i.e. today, or a date in the future)

d. Choose whether or not you’d like to pay the full amount, or a portion of the amount owed. Note: any remaining balance will be indicated in your ‘Unpaid Bills’ section of the ‘Invoice Payments’ tab.

3. Select ‘Review Payment’

4. Review the payment details and, if correct, select “schedule payment” (or “make payment” if the payment is to be made immediately).

5. If paid immediately, the invoice will move from your ‘Unpaid’ to ‘Paid’ section. If the invoice payment is scheduled, the invoice will remain in your ‘Unpaid’ section until the payment date, and the status of the invoice will be set to ‘Scheduled.’

What happens if my balance at the time of a scheduled payment is below the payment amount?

If the balance required to make your scheduled payment is lower than the scheduled payment, then your scheduled payment will fail. You will receive an email and push notification letting you know that your scheduled payment has failed, and the status of your unpaid invoice will be set to ‘Payment Failed.’ You can re-attempt payment by following the steps above for ‘How do I pay an invoice?’

How do I cancel a scheduled payment?

To cancel a scheduled payment, select the invoice from your ‘Unpaid Invoices’ section and click the ‘Cancel Payment’ button on the bottom right.
