Smarter AP Starts Here: New Features in Mekorma Payment Hub v1.1

Today’s Accounts Payable teams face increasing demands to move quickly, maintain accuracy, and meet compliance standards. That’s why we’ve enhanced Mekorma Payment Hub for Business Central in version 1.1—with new features designed to simplify your workflow and reduce manual effort.

This release brings more efficient check printing, clearer check stub details for Multi-Entity Management, streamlined Positive Pay across companies, and added safeguards through automatic vendor re-validation before payments are processed.

These improvements are built to help your team operate with greater ease, security, and confidence every day.

Take a closer look at what’s new in Payment Hub v1.1 for Business Central.

1. Reliable, Stress-Free Check Printing—Right Out of the Box
   If your team prints checks frequently, you know how tedious and error-prone it can be to manually configure layouts and make fine-tuned adjustments to ensure everything lines up. Plus, bank approval adds another layer of complexity.

   With Mekorma’s Check Report Layout Library and built-in check printing tools, there’s no need for custom report writing. Simply select from a set of pre-formatted layouts designed to print accurately—every single time.

   Our library includes five standard check formats that align perfectly with Deluxe Check stock, eliminating guesswork and setup time.

   Starting fresh with a new ERP? These tools make implementation faster and more efficient, so you can get up and running with payments quickly and confidently.

2.  Clearer Check Stubs for Multi-Entity Organizations
   In shared services or Multi-Entity Management (MEM) environments, standard check layouts often fall short—leaving vendors unclear about which entity issued the payment.

   With this update, you can now display entity-specific information on check faces and stubs, replacing the default company details—no customizations required.

   This enhancement ensures your checks are accurate, easy to understand, and professionally formatted, reducing confusion and improving vendor trust right from the start.

3. Cross-Company Positive Pay for Greater Efficiency and Control
   Positive Pay (also known as SafePay) helps protect your organization from fraud by sharing check data with your bank. With version 1.1 of Payment Hub, we’ve enhanced this feature to support cross-company processing—giving AP teams the ability to view and manage check batches from multiple companies in one centralized list.

   Just select the batches you need and generate files in a single step. Users will only see and process data for companies they have permission to access.

   This streamlined approach not only saves time and boosts accuracy, but also minimizes the chance of missing a batch—helping your team move faster with fewer errors and less manual effort.

4. Built-In Compliance: Automated Vendor Re-Validation Before Payment
   Even minor vendor discrepancies—like outdated names or addresses—can lead to major compliance risks, especially under the Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC)’s strict liability rules. To help protect your organization, Mekorma Payment Hub v1.1 introduces a powerful new safeguard: automated Vendor Validation.

   With this feature turned on, any vendor that hasn’t been screened within the past 90 days (default setting) will be automatically re-checked before a payment is processed. If an issue is detected, that payment is flagged and held for review, while the rest of the batch continues uninterrupted.

   You can also adjust the re-validation window to fit your company’s compliance policies. It’s an easy, proactive way to reduce risk and avoid costly penalties—without slowing your team down.

Designed for the Realities of AP

Whether you’re juggling payments across entities, navigating compliance requirements, or just aiming to print checks correctly the first time, Mekorma Payment Hub v1.1 was built to meet the real, everyday demands of Accounts Payable teams.

This release delivers practical, high-impact improvements that streamline your workflows and help safeguard your organization from risk.
