Coupa, Ariba & custom AP portals
Get invoices through
AP portals.
Enterprise invoices rarely sit unpaid because the customer refuses. They sit in a portal: rejected for a missing PO, waiting on an approver, or never submitted at all.
Book a demoYou set the rules. Alder follows through.
Why it gets stuck
The invoice isn’t disputed. It’s stuck in a portal.
Rejected for a missing PO
The portal bounces the invoice, and the rejection notice lands in an inbox nobody watches.
Never submitted
The invoice went out by email, but this customer only pays what arrives through their portal.
Waiting on an approver
It is in the portal, but the approver is out, or it has been routed to the wrong person.
Required fields don’t match
A cost center, PO line, or custom field doesn’t match what the portal expects, so it fails validation.
The AP contact left
Nobody on the customer side owns the invoice anymore, and follow-ups go unanswered.
No one can see the status
Knowing where an invoice stands means logging into every customer’s portal, one at a time.
How Alder handles it
Portal work is customer-facing, so Alder starts read-only. You set the rules once, see what it would do, and approve anything that reaches a customer.
Submits into the portal
Alder submits invoices into Coupa, Ariba, and custom portals, so they enter the customer’s approval flow instead of sitting in an inbox.
Catches and fixes rejections
When a portal rejects an invoice, Alder finds the cause, such as a missing PO number, fixes it, and resubmits.
Chases the real approver
Alder follows up with the person who actually releases payment, not a shared AP inbox, and finds a new contact when an account goes quiet.
Writes back every touch
Every submission, rejection, and follow-up is logged against the invoice, so your ledger shows where each one really stands.
How we deploy
We observe your workflow before an agent writes anything.
Your data is never used to train models, ours or anyone's.
Deployed inside your VPC or cloud account when required.
Every action an agent takes is logged, attributable, and reversible.
Questions
Which AP portals does Alder work with?
Alder submits invoices into Coupa, Ariba, and custom customer portals. Tell us which portals your customers use and we will confirm coverage on the first call.
Why do Coupa and Ariba reject invoices?
Common causes include a missing or invalid PO number, invoice lines or amounts that don’t match the PO, missing required fields such as a cost center, and duplicate submissions. Each rejection has to be found, fixed, and resubmitted before the invoice can be approved and paid.
What happens when the approver is out or has left?
Alder follows up with the person who actually releases payment. When an account goes quiet, it finds the new contact and picks up the conversation, with your approval on anything it sends.
Will Alder contact my customers’ AP teams without approval?
No. You set tone, escalation, and approval rules once, and anything that touches a customer waits for your approval. Every deployment starts read-only.
Find the invoices stuck in portals.
Thirty minutes on your open balances: which invoices are stuck behind a portal or an approval, and which are actually collectible. Bring an aging summary if you have one.
