End-2-End processes, exactly what you need

Paylists is an operations tool to run your business — quote, contract, order, invoice, get paid, purchasing and project management.
All data can export to your accounting tool.

Document flow

Every document knows where it came from

Quotation, contract, invoice, credit note, purchase order and bill are one connected chain inside Paylists — not six separate lists. Open any document and drill straight through to the ones on either side of it.

Accountant access

Your accountant inside the process —
not just the books.

Paylists doesn't replace your accounting software — it feeds it. Your accountant works where the business actually happens: approving a quote, correcting an invoice, checking a purchase order against its vendor agreement. Then everything exports, clean and structured, into the ledger they keep.

ViewRead-only

Follow the operation live — quotations, contracts, invoices, orders and cash flow — without changing anything.

ActOn behalf of

Draft, correct and issue documents in the client's name, clearly attributed to the accountant who did it.

ExportInto your ledger

Structured exports — UBL, CSV and journal-ready data — into whatever accounting tool the books live in.

Full audit — who did what, when, and on whose behalf

Every contract, quotation, invoice and order carries its own timeline. Nothing is anonymous: every create, edit, send and delete is written to an immutable log with the acting user and the client, exportable whole for review or inspection.

Infrastructure

Built on Peppol — in both directions

Paylists is a Peppol-native application, not a PDF tool with an export button. Invoices and credit notes you issue leave over the network; the ones your suppliers issue arrive the same way, already structured and ready to match against a purchase order.

Live across Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Sweden and Ireland — plus invoicing and cash flow in the UK.

FAQ

Common questions

What is Peppol and why do I need it?

Peppol is the standardised European network for exchanging structured business documents — invoices, credit notes and orders — between companies and public bodies. More countries are mandating it for B2B trade every year. Paylists connects you without any technical setup.

Do my customers and suppliers need to be on Peppol too?

To receive your e-invoice directly, a customer needs to be registered on the network — most mid-size and public buyers across Europe already are. Where they are not, Paylists sends the same invoice by email with a PDF, and inbound supplier bills can still be recorded manually.

Is Paylists an accounting tool?

No. Paylists runs your operations — quotations, contracts, project management, purchase orders, vendor agreements, invoicing and payments — and exports clean structured data into whatever accounting tool keeps your books.

Which contract types are supported?

Recurring subscriptions, one-off engagements, milestone-based projects and framework agreements with call-offs. Each model raises its own invoices on its own schedule.

How do purchase orders and vendor agreements work together?

You raise and approve a purchase order, and hold the agreed rates, payment terms and renewal dates in a vendor agreement. When the supplier bill arrives over Peppol it is matched against both, and anything outside tolerance is held for review instead of being paid.

Can my accountant work in Paylists on my behalf?

Yes. Invite them with view-only or act-on-behalf access, per client. Every create, edit, send and delete is written to an immutable audit trail showing who acted, when, and on whose behalf — and access can be revoked in one click.

How quickly will I get paid?

Invoices carry a Pay now button backed by open banking, so a customer can pay straight from their bank account with the amount and reference pre-filled. Funds typically arrive the same or next business day, and the payment reconciles itself against the invoice.

Is Paylists aligned with local tax rules?

Paylists supports the VAT fields and invoice content rules required in each supported country, and validates every document against EN 16931 before it is sent. It does not replace advice from your accountant or tax adviser.

Can I migrate my existing documents?

Yes — existing customers, vendors, contracts and invoice history can be entered manually or imported by CSV. Onboarding help is included, and most SMEs are live in under a day.

What happens if I want to cancel?

Cancel any time from your account settings, with no penalty. Your data stays accessible for 90 days so you can export everything you need.
