Nexus AP automates accounts payable for manufacturing companies by enabling touchless 3-way matching across high-volume PO-based invoices, goods receipts, and delivery notes. Manufacturers process an average of 5,000+ invoices per month, yet only 35% achieve straight-through processing without AP automation. Nexus AP delivers 95%+ auto-match rates with configurable tolerance rules that reduce false exceptions by 60%, allowing AP teams to scale without adding headcount.

Why manufacturing teams evaluate Nexus early

Less manual entry and cleaner month-end reconciliation
Trial-first, not project-first
Teams that want AP automation without enterprise rollout overhead can validate fit in a free trial before committing to anything.
Faster evaluation and simpler team rollout
Frequently Asked Questions
How does Nexus AP handle multi-line invoices?
Our AI processes invoices with hundreds of line items, matching each line to corresponding PO lines and receiving documents. We handle partial receipts, backorders, and quantity splits.
Can you integrate with our MRP/ERP system?
Yes, we integrate with major manufacturing ERPs including SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Epicor, and Infor. We pull POs and receipts in real-time for matching.
How do you handle price variances?
You define acceptable tolerances by percentage or amount. Variances within tolerance auto-match; exceptions route to appropriate approvers with full context.
