“Did Layla’s transfer for the March invoice land in Moneybird?”
It checks Moneybird straight away and tells you whether the payment is in, when it arrived and what is still open.
What you stop doing: Checking a single payment no longer means a trip to the laptop.
Knowing which bills to pay
Today
Supplier bills arrive by email, post and WhatsApp, and only some of them make it into Moneybird. Due dates slip past and late fees follow.
