A payment run groups several supplier bills into one batch payment — handy when you settle many suppliers at once, for example on your weekly pay day. The Payment Runs page in the NexerIQ Web App gives you a clear record of every batch, its status, and the totals paid. This article explains what you'll see there and how a run moves from draft to paid.
Where payment runs live
Open Procurement → Payment Runs from the left menu. The list shows each run's Run number, Status, Payment Date, Currency, Total, who it was Approved By, and when it was Processed At. Use the filter row to find a particular run, and the export button to take the list into a spreadsheet.
How a run is settled
A payment run is settled in two deliberate steps, which keeps a healthy check on money going out:
- Approve — someone with the right permission signs the run off. Their name then shows in the Approved By column.
- Process — the payments are recorded, the bills are marked as paid, and supplier and bank balances update. The Processed At column fills in.
Until a run is approved, nothing leaves your accounts, so there's room to review before you commit. The Status badge tells you where each run stands at a glance — for example Draft, Approved, or Processed.
After a payment
Once a run is processed, each paid bill is settled and drops off your list of what's owed. The bill's status moves to Paid (or Partially Paid), supplier balances update straight away, and your accounts payable picture stays accurate without any extra steps.
Paying a single bill
You don't always need a batch. To check what a single bill still owes, open it under Procurement → Bills — the totals panel shows the amount paid and the amount due. To see everything outstanding across suppliers, use the AP Aging report.
Tip: review the AP Aging report before a pay day so your payment run covers the bills that are actually due.
