We’re pleased to announce the launch of our new Statement Reconciliation feature in Ocerra AP Automation, rolling out next week! This enhancement replaces the previous statement functionality and brings powerful tools to streamline your accounts payable processes.
Here’s a sneak peek at what’s coming next week:
A Smarter Way to Handle Statements
You can now send statements to the same email address as your invoices. Initially, they will appear in the invoice list, but with a quick “Save as Statement” action, Ocerra will learn to recognise and organise statements from this supplier automatically into the statement folder in the future. Prefer to upload manually? Simply drag and drop your files into Ocerra.
Misclassifications? No problem. You can easily switch documents between invoices and statements, giving you full flexibility.

Effortless Reconciliation with Auto-Matching
Ocerra’s auto-matching feature takes the hassle out of reconciliation by intelligently pairing statement lines with corresponding invoices. Using a combination of date, amount, and invoice references, Ocerra can locate relevant invoices—even when the invoice number is buried deep within the statement text.
If a line doesn’t match correctly or needs further review, you can override and adjust the mapping directly in Ocerra’s clear, grid-based interface. This flexible approach ensures accuracy and reduces the need for manual intervention.
Automated Data Extraction
Alongside auto-matching, Ocerra extracts key details such as the statement date, total amount, currency, supplier, and tax number. Attachments are stored neatly in their own folder for easy access.
Everything you need to know about invoice annotation (training), same techniques will be used in training statements.
Better Tracking with Colour-Coded Status
Stay on top of your statements at a glance:
Blue: Received statements
Green: Reconciled
Red: Unreconciled
The list screen allows you to sort by date, vendor, amount, or notes, making it easier to navigate your data.
What’s Coming Next?
We’re working on other features to enhance your experience:
Reports and notifications to track unreconciled invoices.
More advanced sorting and filtering options.
We are also looking forward to your feedback on how we can enhance this functionality.
Why You’ll Love It
