B2B procurement and invoices

Buyer and supplier agents can settle invoices faster, if both sides can prove who agreed to what.

In business purchasing, orders, invoices and payments pass between systems on both sides, and agents are starting to negotiate and settle them. Each side needs to know that the other agent speaks for its company, and that the amount matches the approved order. AgenticOpenFinance links agent identity, the purchase order and the payment mandate, and records each step.

What agents do

What you build on AgenticOpenFinance

1

Supplier agent verification

The buyer's agent verifies the supplier agent's signature and its company credential before accepting an invoice.

2

Three-way match

Order, delivery and invoice are matched before the agent may pay.

3

Payment under approval matrix

Amounts above set levels need one or two named approvers, recorded with the payment.

4

Early payment offers

Supplier agents can offer a discount for early payment; the buyer's policy decides whether to accept.

5

Evidence for audit

Each invoice payment keeps the order, the match result, the approvals and the rail response.

Value chain

The actors in this chain
