What makes AP automation AI-native?
AI-native AP automation reads an invoice as a document, not a template. Vergo reads every line of a supplier invoice bound for Ajera and infers the coding from the line descriptions and from how your team has coded that supplier and similar purchases before. An invoice in a layout nobody has mapped, from a supplier nobody has set up in Ajera, is coded on first sight instead of falling into an exception queue, and the approver sees why each line was coded the way it was.
How does Vergo work with Deltek Ajera?
Ajera's API credentials are created inside your own Ajera system, so your IT team enables access once; Vergo then reads your GL accounts, vendors, projects, phases and activities. Confirmed invoices are posted as vendor invoices through the same API, each line carrying GL account, department and, where it applies, project, phase and activity, so payment runs from Ajera as it does today. New vendors, accounts and projects appear in Vergo as they are created in Ajera, so nobody codes against a stale list. The full specification lives on the Deltek Ajera integration page.
What does Ajera need on each supplier invoice?
- Vendor: matched to your Ajera vendor list.
- GL account and department: required on every invoice line.
- Project, phase and activity: required together whenever the cost belongs to a project.
- Amount: the invoice total must equal the sum of its lines.
What does this look like day to day?
A structural engineering consultant sends an invoice for work on two phases of one project. Vergo reads the lines, matches the consultant to the existing Ajera vendor, codes each line to the right phase and consultant activity with the GL account and department, and routes it to the principal in charge. Once approved, the vendor invoice is ready for Ajera with lines that add up to the total.
Does Vergo pay the invoice too?
No. Vergo captures, codes and routes each invoice for approval, then hands it to Ajera; it does not pay suppliers. Payment stays on the rails your business already uses — your bank, your existing payment run, your current payment provider. Approvals are optional and fit how you already control spend: route by GL account, by amount or by project, or skip approval flows and let policy flags catch only what breaks a rule before it reaches Ajera.
What changes at month end in Ajera?
The work moves from the end of the month to the moment of spend. Because coding happens when the receipt or invoice arrives, close in Ajera becomes a review of exceptions rather than a pile of unkeyed supplier invoices. Card spend, employee reimbursements and AP invoices run through one coding model — same coding, same review, one reconciliation against the Ajera structure — and payment stays on the rails you already use.
