Overview

Volopay's Bill Pay allows users to schedule recurring bills, ensuring consistent payments to vendors based on a predefined schedule. These bills are automatically generated, routed for approval, and processed for payment, streamlining your financial operations.

Create a recurring bill

Setting up a recurring bill in Bill Pay is straightforward and ensures regular payments without the need to manually enter bill details each time.

  • Navigate to the Bill Pay module and begin drafting a new bill.

  • Click the “Mark as recurring” button during the bill creation process.

  • Set the frequency of the bill payments; options include Weekly or Monthly.

  • Specify the “Next invoice creation date”, “Next payment date”, and “Next due date” to automate the scheduling of subsequent bills.

  • Choose an End Date for when the recurring series will conclude.

  • Proceed to create the bill as usual. The details of this initial bill will serve as the template for future bills in the series.
