Email-to-Bill — forwarding vendor invoices
Forward any vendor invoice to your org's expense address and Turtini will create a draft bill in Accounts Payable automatically — no copy-paste, no manual entry.
Your expense address:
Every org gets a unique inbound address at {alias}@expenses.turtini.com (typically your org slug, e.g. [email protected]). The exact address is shown at the top of Accounting → Bills (AP) — click "Copy" to grab it.
How forwarding works:
1. Forward the invoice email (or send a fresh email with the PDF attached) to your expense address
2. Turtini parses the email, uploads any PDF or image attachments to your bill record, and asks Claude to extract vendor name, amount, due date, and line items
3. The vendor is matched to an existing record, or created if new
4. A new bill appears in Bills (AP) with status "Draft" — review the extracted data, fix anything that looks off, and Approve when ready to pay
5. The forwarder gets a confirmation email with a link back to the draft bill
Sender allowlist:
Only emails sent from a recognized address are accepted — this stops random senders from injecting bills into your accounting. Each org member's primary email and personal email are auto-allowed. To forward from an additional address (a work alias, a phone email, etc.), add it under Account → Settings → Expense forwarding.
Extraction confidence and review:
Each draft bill carries a confidence flag (high / medium / low) and a "needs review" badge when the line-item account assignments aren't obvious from the invoice. Always review draft bills before approving — Claude is good but not infallible, especially on handwritten or low-resolution invoices.
Rejected emails:
If the sender isn't on any member's allowlist, or the org alias doesn't exist, the sender receives a rejection bounce explaining why. Nothing is created in Accounting.
Attachments are subject to the same image moderation pipeline as the rest of the platform — flagged content goes to the Admin → Moderation queue.
