Why Accounts Payable Management Matters

Effective accounts payable (AP) management is essential for maintaining healthy business cash flow, accurate financial reporting, and reliable vendor relationships. 

Outsourced AP services help you gain control over your payables process, eliminating late payments, missed invoices, and manual data entry errors. At Origin, we offer scalable AP solutions that support growing businesses with high accuracy, strong internal controls, and process automation.

Full Visibility into Your Payables Cycle

Our AP service provides complete visibility into every stage of the payables process, from invoice intake and approval to payment execution and reconciliation. With real-time status updates, and audit-ready documentation, you’ll always know exactly what’s pending, scheduled, and paid.

Designed for Growing Businesses

Whether you’re processing 30 or 300 invoices a month, our outsourced accounts payable service is built to scale with your business. We support businesses from $2M to $25M in revenue across a wide range of industries, including professional services, construction, and wholesale distribution. By offloading your AP to an experienced team of professionals, you gain peace of mind and free up internal resources.

When your accounts payable is managed alongside Origin’s scalable bookkeeping and fractional controller services, you benefit from a fully integrated finance function. This means more accurate accruals, better cash flow forecasting, and improved visibility into your business’s financial health. Our streamlined process reduces handoffs, eliminates data gaps, and ensures that all payables information flows seamlessly into your general ledger.

We use secure, cloud-based platforms to manage AP workflows, implement approval controls, and maintain a full audit trail of every transaction. Whether you’re working in QuickBooks, Xero, Sage, or an integrated AP tool, we adapt our proven processes to your ecosystem and make recommendations to optimize efficiency and control.

  • What our Clients Say

    We were introduced to Origin as a firm that could help us through the maternity leave of a key admin and finance person in our 18-employee company. Over a series of meetings, we developed a format that would work for our situation and implemented shortly after. 

    The relationship has worked very well since, delivering on both the accounting and the advisory side. It has been much more than simply filling in for a leave employee, and when that employee returns, the efficiencies and organization that Origin has built into the role will allow her to work much more effectively. Origin is an innovative company that I can recommend without hesitation.

  • What our Clients Say

    Matt and the Origin team have transformed our financial operations at Stevenson Industrial Refrigeration. From day one, they delivered comprehensive reporting, rolling cash-flow forecasts, and expert guidance, including leading the implementation of our new accounting system and enhanced reporting templates. 

    The processes they put in place quickly uncovered internal theft, and they navigated the bank’s financial requirements to facilitate our company buy-back. Thanks to their clear, actionable advice, we now enjoy real-time visibility into our pipeline, resources, and cash position.

    I consider Origin a true partner in accounting and finance.

    President and CEO, Stevenson Industrial Refrigeration Ltd.

  • What our Clients Say

    Origin Accounting has been a pleasure to work with. Since bringing them onboard to be our Fractional Controller in October of 2023, the business has been running smoother, cleaner and we have a clear outlook on our financial health, cash flow, and always know where we stand with our projects. 

    Owning a construction company can be rewarding but also very risky so having live data to work with is critical for planning and operating successfully. I would highly recommend hiring Matt, Zohra and their team. The future is brighter with them on your side!

    Shayne FInskars

    Owner, City & Country Contracting Ltd.

  • What our Clients Say

    It is a pleasure working with the team at Origin Accounting. They have brought clarity and consistency to our financial systems—managing everything from monthly bookkeeping and AP/AR to board reporting and audit prep. 

    Their approach is thorough, responsive, and tailored to the unique needs of our small nonprofit. It’s obvious that they care about our work –  they are as familiar with our programs, funders, and operations as we are! Thanks to their support, I feel more confident in our numbers and have more time to focus on our mission.
