  • Vouchers that match xTuple AP, so payments and reconciliation stay in one place.

Why does Vergo rank first for xTuple?

Manufacturers' card spend is parts, tooling and supplies bought by people who are not in finance. Vergo gets the receipt by text, proposes the account segments and project, and creates the voucher. Every coding shows why it was chosen, so a reviewer confirms in seconds instead of re-coding by hand. 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.

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. Purchasing cards with rebates can stay as they are.

Who is Vergo a fit for on xTuple?

Manufacturers and distributors with purchasing, maintenance or sales staff holding cards, where the controller keys vouchers from statements each month.

What should xTuple users test before choosing?

Take a month of card statements and see whether each tool can produce vouchers with the right G/L account segments and project, and reimburse employees as vendors, without anyone keying distributions in xTuple.
