Saasu AP and expense capabilities at a glance
| Capability | In Saasu? | What the documentation shows |
|---|---|---|
| Bank feeds | Yes | Automatic bank feeds via direct feeds (ANZ, St. George), Skript open-banking feeds and Yodlee, plus API feeds such as PayPal, with rules and matching for reconciliation; CSV import covers banks without a feed. |
| Credit card feeds | Yes | Saasu's bank feed help says bank and credit card data is downloaded automatically through the same direct, open-banking and Yodlee feeds, subject to the card issuer being supported and the AUD-only limit. |
| AP automation (invoice capture and processing) | Yes | Built-in OCR Invoice: upload PDF, PNG or JPG bills (or email PDFs to a file-specific @invoices.saasu.com OCR inbox, including from whitelisted suppliers), review the extracted data and save as a purchase with the file attached. |
| Receipt capture and mobile expenses | Yes | The Saasu mobile app (iOS and Android) captures expenses on the go with photos attached, and the web OCR Invoice feature reads receipt and invoice images. |
| Expense claim approvals | No | Saasu's reimbursement guide handles employee expenses by entering a purchase with the employee as the contact (receipts attached) or through a payroll pay item; it describes no claim submission or approval workflow, so approval happens outside the system. |
| Approval workflows (invoices, POs, payments) | No | A review of Saasu's purchases, access, reimbursement and features documentation found no approval workflow for bills, purchase orders or expenses; purchases move through document types (quote, purchase order, tax invoice) and user roles only control what each user can see. |
What to budget for
- Expense claim approvals (no): expense management with approval workflow and reimbursements and bill approval workflow.
- Approval workflows (invoices, POs, payments) (no): expense management with approval workflow and reimbursements and bill approval workflow.

Where Vergo fits with Saasu
Vergo integrates with Saasu and posts coded card spend into it; for Saasu, the live integration covers expense management. It works with any card from any bank — connecting your existing cards involves no card applications, no re-issuing and no banking change. Employees send receipts by text or from their phone, and Vergo chases missing receipts itself instead of waiting for a report. 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. The proposal covers the account, GST code and tags, and every coding shows why it was chosen, so a reviewer confirms in seconds instead of re-coding by hand. Approval workflows are optional and fit how you already control spend: route by GL account or by amount — or skip approval flows entirely and let policy flags catch only what breaks a rule.
