AP Automation Readiness Pack
Editable AP readiness workbook and exception matrix. Not a tracker template. Payment stays outside.
Download the AP readiness pack
The AP Readiness Checklist and Exception Matrix is a control workbook for accounts payable automation. It is not an invoice-tracker template. Use the invoice tracker and tracker starter pack when you only need a status register.
What you get
- An editable workbook covering intake inventory, volume baseline, document requirements, supplier mapping, matching rules, approval/RACI, exception taxonomy, duplicate keys, human review, draft-only destination contract, payment boundary, idempotency, audit/security prompts, five fictional cases, KPI definitions, vendor questions, proof gates, rollout, and a decision record
- CSV companions for exceptions, cases, duties, and duplicate keys
- The five labeled-text fixtures from the Invoice Processing Test Pack
OCR is not measured. Payment entities are not created. Supplier bank-detail changes stay out of band.
How to start
- Open the workbook Cover sheet.
- Leave volume and KPI numbers blank until you have your own counts.
- Walk Case01 through Case05.
- Read the paired guide: Accounts Payable Automation.
