Pain point
Vendor invoices scattered everywhere except where they're needed
A vendor invoice sent by email, WhatsApp or handed over on paper is disconnected from the job it's for the moment it arrives — someone has to manually reconnect the two before it can even be reviewed for payment.
The problem
Without invoices tied to their job, verifying that billed work actually happened, and matching the amount to any owner approval, becomes a manual reconciliation exercise every time.
Why it matters
Untracked vendor invoices mean untracked liabilities — a PM company can't report accurate expenses to owners if invoices are still sitting in someone's inbox unprocessed.
How Meridian helps
- Vendor invoices submitted directly against the completed job through the vendor portal
- Invoice amount checked against the job and any approval threshold automatically
- Every invoice flows into the same ledger driving owner statements and financial reports
FAQ
What if a vendor still emails an invoice instead of using the portal?
Invoices can be uploaded and linked manually to the relevant job, though portal submission keeps the link automatic from the start.
