The payment queue
Paying the bills is the other half of the books. Tredco reads your supplier invoices in, posts them and queues them for payment — and the payment queue is where you actually pay them. You settle several at once and authorize with BankID, and because the voucher is already posted, the job is done the moment the payment goes out.
The payment queue belongs to accounting. If you have turned on accounting in Tredco, Payment queue sits in the rail on a computer — with a small number showing how many payments are waiting.
What lands in the queue
The queue takes in posted supplier invoices that haven't been paid yet. When the agent posts a bill, it queues it for payment at the same time — or you add it yourself from the invoice with Add to payment queue. Other payouts from accounting, such as salary and tax, can appear in the same queue when you use those parts.
One thing has to be in place before an invoice can be paid: the supplier needs a payment account. If it's missing, Tredco tells you — "Add the supplier payment account before this invoice can enter the payment queue" — and the line stays marked needs review until the account is filled in.
The three tabs
The queue is split in three, so you can see where each payment stands:
Queue — the bills that are ready to pay, and the ones that need review first.
In progress — payments you have started that the bank hasn't confirmed yet.
Completed — what has been paid, and what was cancelled or failed.
How to pay
- Open Payment queue and stay on the Queue tab. Each ready line shows the recipient and the amount.
- If you need to see what you're paying for, tap View invoice on the line. To leave a bill out, tap Remove — it goes back out of the queue.
- Tap Start payment. Tredco gathers the ready lines into one payment and moves it to In progress.
- Tap Authorize with BankID. The bank opens and you sign there — just like in your online bank.
- Come back to Tredco and tap Check status. Once the bank confirms, the payment moves to Completed and shows as Paid.
Nothing is paid until you sign at the bank. Right up to the moment you authorize, you can take a line back out of the queue.
Good to know
- One currency at a time. Every bill in one payment must use the same currency. If several currencies are in the queue, Tredco asks you to Split currencies and pay them separately.
- Paid it outside Tredco? Tap Mark manually paid on the line, and it closes without a new bank payment.
- Bank asks for more? Sometimes the bank needs an extra confirmation — an SMS, a second signer, or more money in the account. Tredco writes what's missing; finish it at the bank and tap Check status.
Invoices come in and are posted on the way to the queue — read that whole picture in Invoicing and bookkeeping. To see how a voucher is approved before it lands here, see Approving a booking.
