Why does Vergo rank first for Dolibarr?
It removes the typing, not the workflow. Vergo proposes the coding by inference from your own accounting structure and history — no rule library to build, no keyword lists to maintain, and new vendors are coded on first sight. Every coding shows why it was chosen, so a reviewer confirms in seconds instead of re-coding by hand. You enable Dolibarr's REST API module on your instance and issue Vergo a key; Vergo then reads your third parties and posts card purchases as coded supplier invoices through Dolibarr's API, with expense reports posted through the same API.
Do you have to change cards?
No. Vergo does not issue cards; connecting your existing cards involves no card applications, no re-issuing and no banking change. Dolibarr's bank accounts stay as configured.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Vergo only for construction companies?
No. Associations, agencies and traders all use it; coding follows the expense types and accounts in your Dolibarr instance.
How is Vergo different from Expensify for Dolibarr?
Expensify builds reports for someone to process. Vergo suggests coding per purchase and chases the receipt by text, then posts entries to Dolibarr.
Does Vergo work for associations?
Yes. Volunteers and coordinators can text receipts without an account in Dolibarr.
How do we start?
Get started; enable the API module and issue a key.
Does Vergo handle AP?
Yes. Card spend, employee reimbursements and AP invoices run through one coding model — same coding, same review, one reconciliation — and payment stays on the rails you already use.
