Introducing AI-Powered AP in FRONTSTEPS Manager with AvidXchange. October 21, 2026 A landscaping invoice shouldn't be a time-consuming IT project. But you know how it goes: open the attachment, copy the details into another system, track down an approval, then log in somewhere else to pay it. Meanwhile, there's a board meeting to prepare for and a homeowner waiting for a call back. Multiply that routine by every vendor across your communities, and the paperwork takes over. With FRONTSTEPS AP, Frontsteps is building on its partnership with AvidXchange to bring accounts payable into FRONTSTEPS Manager, starting with AI-powered invoice capture from ALLi. Frontsteps is designing the full workflow, so your team can handle a bill from upload to reconciliation without leaving the platform. Frontsteps is rolling out invoice capture through an early access program, so participating teams can start using it in Manager before General Availability in November. Let ALLi take on the data entry. Upload up to 20 invoices, and ALLi pre-fills the readable fields, bringing the information into Manager without asking your team to type it all out again. When you have a stack of vendor bills to process, batch uploads let you enter them all at once. That leaves your team with less repetitive entry and more time to check what's being charged. Because this capability lives inside Manager, you can use the screens, login, and FRONTSTEPS support team you already know rather than learn another application. One workflow from capture to reconciliation. Beyond invoice capture, Frontsteps is building toward a full AP workflow that keeps the invoice in Manager through each of these steps: * Capture. Upload one invoice or a batch, with ALLi pre-filling the readable invoice data. * Code and match. Each invoice is matched to the correct general ledger (GL) code and purchase order within Manager. * Approve. The invoice routes to the right approver, with the full invoice image available on the same screen. * Pay. AvidXchange executes the payment without requiring your team to open a separate portal. * Reconcile. The payment closes out automatically, without re-keying its details or cross-checking a second system. Faster data entry only gets you so far if you're still moving the invoice elsewhere for approval or payment. The full workflow is designed to remove those handoffs and keep the bill and its supporting information in one place. Your team still makes the call. Say the landscaper bills for work that wasn't finished. ALLi can help read the invoice, but someone still needs to know what happened on the property and question the charge. Getting the number into the system correctly isn't the same as deciding it should be paid. Your team still reviews invoices and makes approval decisions. Less manual entry and an invoice image right there during approval can help staff spot an overcharge or a duplicate bill before it's paid. The time you get back can go toward walking the property, returning a homeowner's call, or heading into a board meeting with the answers ready. Those are the interactions that help your communities feel well looked after. See what's next on November 10. Want a closer look?

AvidXchange launches integrated payment automation solution for Workday users. Jun 9, 2026 AvidXchange Inc. announced on June 9 that its Payment Automation for Workday has launched on the Workday Marketplace through Invisors, a Workday partner. The integration connects Workday Financial Management with AvidXchange, providing customers access to a supplier payment solution within the Workday ecosystem and enabling payment automation inside the platform. Workday Financial Management offers organizations unified core financial capabilities designed to provide real-time insight and efficiency. With this new integration, finance professionals can initiate, approve, and track payments directly within their existing Workday enterprise resource planning system. This minimizes the need to switch between systems and is intended to improve workflow efficiency. Dan Drees, president of AvidXchange, said, "We are driven by a commitment to continually evolve and meet the shifting needs of our customers by providing them solutions that fit into their existing workflows. By connecting Workday users to AvidXchange's supplier network of over 1.5 million suppliers, we are providing a level of visibility and control that was previously unavailable in a single-interface experience." Key benefits highlighted include enhanced efficiency and control for organizations seeking to modernize accounts payable processes; direct ecosystem integration allowing users to complete payment tasks without toggling between software platforms; immediate access to the AvidPay Network; comprehensive visibility into payment activities from submission through final proof of payment; and expert collaboration with Invisors supporting user experience. Nelson Egurrola, innovation leader at Invisors, said, "We are focused on delivering high-impact solutions that augment native Workday capabilities and drive real business value. Partnering with AvidXchange on this integrated payment solution allows us to help customers streamline supplier payments within Workday, helping to improve efficiency while fostering a strong, intuitive user experience." Customers such as Providence Group have already adopted AvidXchange for Workday in efforts aimed at modernizing manual payment processes and enabling faster supplier payments. While more information is available on the Workday Marketplace regarding this integration by Invisors, it is noted that AvidXchange is not an official Workday Partner.
