Hi Karen,
This may be your lucky day.

We, in our new company Link2 Systems, have recently developed and released a new product called Link2 Points, that is now operational in many sites.

Link2 Points(tm) was developed to meet the needs of Buying Group(s) processing, and hugely simplify the processing of paying vendor invoices with credit cards. Ultimately, to then maximize the loyalty points programs benefits and points by paying more and more vendors by credit cards. We see paying trade vendors by credit card as a definite growing trend.

We consider VISA, AMEX, MasterCard as a buying group where you use them as payment vendors, to pay other (source invoice (as many as you want) vendors, on a consolidated cheque, using the existing Adagio manual cheques or system cheques as a routine process.

Link2 Points maintains complete audit trail for processing the originating invoice as you would normally enter (and post to payables and/or Job Costing) but uses the configuration of the Link2 Points solution to select within Adagio Payables and transfer the invoices from the source vendor(s) to the payment vendor, and process the payment for say AMEX as a normal vendor payment, where all of the invoices being paid by credit card (say AMEX) are listed on the payment stub, for easy reconciliation.

If you are using Adagio BankRec, and making credit card payments on-line, you can also connect back to the Credit Card vendor in Adagio Payables, to pay the selected invoices that match up to amount being paid on-line.

Terms on the originating invoices, transfer to payment vendor so if discounts would normally apply, then they will also be taken as well with the subsequent credit card vendor payment.

Please call us, and we can connect and drop in a demo version that you can test out or use on your live data (assuming you are version AP 8.0 and higher). You can purchase from your Adagio dealer for $1500 including, 15 months software upgrade maintenance. Installation and training is less than an hour.

Best,
Brian
