Cash application solutions frequently asked questions
Cash application software automates the process of matching incoming payments to outstanding invoices. Quadient’s financial solution uses AI and machine learning to extract remittance data, match payments, even without remittance details, and apply them directly to your ERP system. This reduces manual work, improves accuracy and accelerates cash flow.
The process involves:
Receiving payments and remittance information, which may arrive separately.
Matching payments to the correct invoices.

Yes. Quadient AR offers seamless integrations with a wide range of ERP systems, including SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Sage, QuickBooks and more. It provides prebuilt connectors and custom integration options, ensuring compatibility with your existing setup.
Cash application typically falls into three main types: manual, semi-automated and fully automated.
Manual cash application involves AR teams matching payments to invoices by hand, often referencing remittance data or customer communications. While precise, it’s time-consuming and prone to error.
Semi-automated cash application uses basic tools or rules to speed up matching but still requires frequent human review.
Automated cash application leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to extract, match and apply payments automatically, even when remittance information is incomplete.
Quadient’s automated cash application software takes this final step further by continuously learning from historical data, improving match rates and integrating seamlessly with your ERP to post payments faster and more accurately.
Automating cash application transforms the accounts receivable (AR) process, saving time, reducing manual effort and improving accuracy. With cash application automation software, you can:
Accelerate cash posting: Reduce reconciliation time by up to 95% and improve cash flow visibility.
Increase accuracy: AI-powered OCR and machine learning minimize human error and ensure consistent data capture.
Enhance team productivity: Automation frees analysts to focus on higher-value financial tasks.
Improve customer experience: Faster, more accurate payment matching leads to smoother account management.
Lower operational costs: Automation reduces lockbox fees, manual processing time and the need for exception handling.
In short, cash application automation helps finance teams work smarter, not harder, while delivering measurable results in speed, accuracy and efficiency.
AI enhances cash application by:
Automatically extracting remittance data using optical character recognition (OCR).
Matching payments to invoices, even without complete information.
Suggesting likely customer matches for unidentified payments.
Reducing manual data entry and errors.
Accelerating processing times; some users have reduced processing from two days to one hour.
