Why it matters

What Compliance Trinity & Pay-Holds does for you

100%

of payments gated on the Trinity

Enforced where it counts

The rule lives in the database, so no screen, export or shortcut can release a held payment.

Clear reasons for AP

Every held invoice shows exactly which document is missing or expired.

Overrides with a paper trail

Authorized people can override, but a reason is required and permanently recorded.

A snapshot at payment time

Each payment stores the compliance state at the moment it was released.

In the product

Holds you can see, overrides you can trace

Accounts payable sees why each invoice is held, and every override carries a name, time and reason.
