# Accounts Payable
Process vendor invoices and schedule payments for "$ARGUMENTS". Track what is owed, when it is due, and optimize payment timing.
## Prerequisites
None — utility skill, run anytime.
## Process
1. **Collect outstanding invoices:**
- Gather all unpaid vendor invoices
- Record: vendor name, invoice number, date, due date, amount, terms
- Note any early payment discounts (e.g., 2/10 net 30)
2. **Verify each invoice:**
- Match invoice to purchase order or contract
- Confirm goods/services were received
- Check for duplicate invoices
- Flag discrepancies for dispute
3. **Build payment schedule:**
- Sort by due date
- Prioritize based on: terms, discounts, vendor relationships, cash position
- Group payments by payment run (weekly, biweekly)
- Calculate cash needed per payment run
4. **Track aging:**
- Current (0-30 days)
- 31-60 days
- 61-90 days
- Over 90 days
- Flag overdue items for immediate action
5. **Write the artifact** to `.metapowers/bookkeeping/$ARGUMENTS/accounts-payable.md` with sections:
- **Outstanding Invoices** — table of all unpaid invoices
- **Payment Schedule** — upcoming payments by date
- **Aging Report** — amounts by aging bucket
- **Discount Opportunities** — savings available from early payment
- **Disputes** — invoices under review
