Payment Approver

Request

Let the CEO review and approve a batch of vendor payments before release.

“In SageAPA I would batch all the bills together for vendors and then he would get to take a look at them and then stamp approval for payment before I submitted payment. Batch view is ideal as they don’t need to look at every single invoice.”

Payment Runs for Bill Pay

“Payment runs allow AP teams to group payments together for batch review and release. An AP team member can prepare a payment run, and an eligible releaser can act on payments in the run that are awaiting their approval.”

ResolvesThe ask is batch review and approval by a separate person before payment ("stamp approval for payment"). Payment runs let AP "prepare a payment run" and an "eligible releaser" act on it, with a batch summary. That delivers the core ask.

Thanks for raising this. On June 8, 2026 we shipped Payment Runs for Bill Pay (on Ramp Plus). Your AP team can group approved payments into a run. The run shows the selected payments and the total. Someone like your CEO, set up as the release approver, can then review the batch and release it all at once or one payment at a time. You need to turn on payment step approvals first. Setup details: https://support.ramp.com/hc/en-us/articles/49032108286099-Payments-Runs-on-Ramp-Bill-Pay. Let us know if this still misses part of your workflow.
