If you're currently on a Standard plan, the All Features trial gives you access to Advanced, Premium and Add-on features.

Advanced features include:
- Bill-to-PO Matching: Track Purchase Order balances, align team spending with budgets, and reduce payment errors by matching Bills with their original Purchase Orders.

- Manual Journal approvals: Introduce approval processes for Manual Journal entries to avoid errors and unauthorised changes so each entry is thoroughly reviewed before posting to maintain the accuracy and integrity of your general ledger.
- Budget Checking: Compare payables against budget limits directly in the approval process — no need to switch to Xero. Visualise the status of budgets with clear traffic light colours, see remaining amounts at a glance, and catch overspending before it happens.

- Accrual reports: Sync directly with Xero to reduce manual errors and keep your P&L accurate. Set up multi-step approvals for accruals, review and edit journals before posting, and view detailed Purchase Order balances by switching between net and gross amounts.
- Supplier onboarding: Verify Suppliers before any payments are made by routing new Supplier records through an approval process. Add and approve generic bank
account details, apply smart rules to validate each Supplier, and rely on
the ApprovalMax audit trail to capture every action taken throughout the
onboarding process.

- Goods Received Notes: Confirm that goods have arrived before
any payments are made. Match deliveries to Purchase Orders, add notes to keep
everyone informed, and give your finance team the green light to pay only when
items are received.
- Sales quotation: Create and review Sales Quotes directly in
ApprovalMax before they’re sent to customers. Maintain consistency across all
outgoing Quotes, and track customer responses to easily convert accepted Quotes into Invoices.
- Review step: Add an optional review stage before the formal approval. Route requests to the right person, reduce back-and-forth, and catch small issues early.
- Editing on Approval: Let Approvers make direct edits to Purchase Orders, Bills, Invoices and Quotes which are On Approval so you don’t have to reject and restart for minor changes.
- Hold requests On Approval: Use the On Hold status to temporarily pause a request mid-approval. Such requests won’t move forward until resumed.
- Workflow Version History: Keep a clear record of all changes made to your approval workflows. Access previous versions, maintain a full audit trail, simplify audit preparations, and increase internal transparency to help prevent fraud.
- Request Version History: Track every change made to your requests with a detailed audit trail. Compare versions side by side and view the edit history across key documents — including Purchase Orders, Bills, Invoices, Credit Notes, Quotes, Batch Payments (Xero and Airwallex) and Suppliers.

- Automated approvals: Set up Auto-Approval rules for low-risk, recurring requests. Reduce manual work and keep things moving faster.
- Account Groups: Group accounts for reporting or approval purposes. Assign them to workflows quickly, and manage changes centrally.
If you're on an Advanced plan, the All Features trial unlocks Premium and Add-on features only because you already have access to all Advanced features as part of your plan.
Premium features include:
- Xero Batch Payment approvals: Speed up your payment process by preparing and reviewing all
payments in one go. Eliminate the need to log in to multiple banking platforms
and keep your cash flow on track with streamlined batch approvals.
- Stand-alone workflows: Create flexible approval workflows for documents outside of
Xero — like HR forms, payrolls or CapEx requests. Tailor approval rules to match
your business needs and maintain control across all departments.
- Payments with Airwallex: Simplify cross-border payments by initiating them directly
from ApprovalMax. Transact in over 150 countries and 40 currencies, consolidate
your international banking, and keep an audit trail for every payment.

issues and get the most out of your ApprovalMax setup.
- Public API: Connect ApprovalMax with other systems in your tech stack.
Integrate data flows, expand reporting capabilities, and enhance the value of
your approval data through custom automation.
Add-ons include:
- ApprovalMax Capture: Free your team from repetitive data entry. ApprovalMax Capture automates the extraction of key information from uploaded Bills, Purchase Orders, Credit Notes and Sales Invoices and populates fields like Supplier name, amount and line items. Upload documents individually or in bulk, and send them straight to a dedicated inbox.

- ApprovalMax Pay: Pay approved Bills directly from ApprovalMax using secure open banking technology. Route payments through the correct accounts, track the status of Invoices in real time, and automate reconciliation — all while reducing the risk of fraud.
