Paying Freelancers, Contractors, and Vendors with Liquid without Invoice Approvals
As Invoices come in from your Vendors, Liquid makes the payment process a breeze:
When an Invoice is sent by a Vendor, you’ll receive an email, but your Liquid dashboard will also alert you of any Invoices that are ready for payment. You can track the status of your Invoices by selecting the Invoices tab from the left menu options. The table will show you which Invoices are paid, unpaid, and due.
Click on an Invoice to view all of the details. With automatic verification, Invoices are reviewed against agreed-upon Work Orders. Because you have not set up Invoice approvals, the Invoice can be paid immediately. If the Invoice was sent to you by an international Vendor, then you may not be able to pay the Invoice until their bank account has been verified. The international bank account verification process automatically completes within 12-48 hours.
With the Invoice selected, you can choose to Pay now or Schedule Payment. Once your choice has been made and your payment source has been selected, all you have to do is click the Pay Invoice button.
And if your Vendor has sent you an Invoice outside of Liquid, you can always upload that Invoice to Liquid for approvals and payment.

If you’d like to pay Invoices with an invoice approval process, here’s how.
First, set up your organization settings for your invoice approval process through the Settings tab in the left menu options:
Each user within your organization can be assigned various roles of what they can do and access within Liquid through the Roles tab. Here you can assign users that are Department Approvers, Department Users, Accounts Payable, and more.
Viewing the Users tab will show all users within your organization alongside their title and roles that you’ve assigned, along with their level of approval status.
The policies tab allows you to create rules and restrictions around approvals, amounts, and changes. This is where you can set up minimum invoice amounts that must be approved by different levels within your organization, when changes to a bill are allowed, and how you’d like to pay your bills.
