Every supplier invoice, in three steps
Forward the invoice. Approve it with the budget in view. It lands in both systems.
Every line extracted and coded
The moment an invoice lands in your inbox, every detail is extracted automatically, so your team approves instead of typing.
Budget and margin in view before anyone approves
Each invoice matched to its purchase order and the client’s remaining budget, with your service margin worked out on every line.
One approval, published to both systems
The approved invoice goes to your finance system to pay the supplier and to your care platform to bill and claim. No re-keying.
What Invoice Harbour does with every invoice
Automated invoice extraction
Vendor, invoice details and every line item read the moment the invoice lands in your inbox, with possible duplicates flagged.
Learn more →Supplier checks
ABN, GST registration and bank details checked on every supplier, with anything that does not match flagged before approval.
Learn more →Purchase order matching
Each invoice checked against the purchase order raised in your care platform, within tolerance, before approval.
Learn more →Client budgets
The client’s remaining funding shown as you process, so nobody approves a service that overspends it.
Learn more →Service margins
Your service rates applied to every line, with the margin worked out per line and across the invoice.
Learn more →Service coding
Every line mapped to its service code as it is read, so claims are ready to submit and stop bouncing.
Learn more →Publishing
One approval sends the invoice to your finance system for payment and your care platform for billing.
Learn more →Self-managed participants
Invoices from participant-chosen workers coded, the capped overhead applied, and the reimbursement raised net of co-contribution.

The compliance picture, handled as part of the workflow
Support at Home tightened how providers track third-party spend. Each of these is covered by normal day-to-day processing, not a separate exercise.
Budget tracking, every pool
Remaining funding is in view at approval, across the quarterly budget and the AT-HM pools.
Unspent funds, always current
Invoices are matched to purchase orders as they arrive, so the unspent position is right day to day.
Service type coding
Every line is coded to its Support at Home service type, so claims are correct the first time.
Monthly client statements
Services delivered, remaining funding and contributions are already reconciled when the statement is due.
Participant contributions
Contribution rates are held per client, so the government and participant split is right on every invoice.
Audit-ready records
Each invoice keeps who approved it, when, against which purchase order and with which codes.

Checking the markup on every supplier invoice line
Who in your business knows the markup on a supplier invoice before it's approved, not after the month closes? If the answer is no one, that's a problem. Under Support at Home there's no package management fee to fall back on. The markup on each service pays for the work around it. A supplier rate that creeps up, or a line sold below cost, eats into your margin. Invoice Harbour shows the markup on every supplier invoice before it's approved, so the business can keep every invoice in the green.
