# User Guide - Smartwebs + Payabli - How the Integration Works

The Smartwebs + Payabli integration allows approved Accounts Payable invoices in Smartwebs to be sent to Payabli for automated vendor payments.

The integration creates a streamlined payment process:

- **Smartwebs** — AP invoices are entered, reviewed, and approved.
- **Payabli** — Approved payout information is transmitted for payment processing.
- **Vendor** — The vendor receives payment through the available payment method.

### Payment Flow

**Step 1: AP Invoice in Smartwebs**

An invoice is entered into Smartwebs Accounts Payable and associated with the appropriate vendor. NOTE: The Third Party Payment Payment will be checked by default if the vendor is set as a Paybli vendor in Vendor Management.

![](https://solutions.smartwebs.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-16-2026-07-08-43-0121-PM.png?width=1653&height=700&name=image-png-Oct-16-2026-07-08-43-0121-PM.png)

**Step 2: Invoice Approval**

The invoice goes through the organization's normal AP review and approval process. The Smartwebs Approval Engine isn't required for the Payabli integration, however, we highly recommend and encourage this.

**Step 3: Payout Sent to Payabli**

Once approved for payment, the payout information is sent from Smartwebs to Payabli.

**Step 4: Payabli Processes the Payment**

Payabli processes the payout based on the vendor's payment information and the payment method available for that vendor. To see if a vendor was paid via Payabli, you'll open the drawer and look for the 3rd Party Payment checkbox above the method.

![](https://solutions.smartwebs.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Oct-16-2026-07-09-22-5588-PM.png?width=662&height=403&name=image-png-Oct-16-2026-07-09-22-5588-PM.png)

**Step 5: Vendor Receives Payment**

The vendor receives the payment through the selected payment method.

> **Important:** Smartwebs is the system where the AP invoice and accounting information are maintained. Payabli handles the payment-processing portion of the vendor payout.

### **Payabli Payout Pricing**
