How to Connect

1

In Puzzle, open Integrations → Payables → BILL and click Connect. Approve the secure connection so AP data can sync into Puzzle in real time.

In Puzzle, map accounts for Accounts Payable, Cash, and any clearing or expense accounts. Select the entities or ledgers that should receive bills and payments.
