Common Limitations of Accounting Software
Accounting platforms like Xero, Sage, and QuickBooks provide solid core features—bank reconciliation, invoicing, and financial reporting. However, they may fall short when it comes to:
- Purchase order management
- Multi-step approvals for invoices and payments
- Automated invoice matching
- Budget tracking at the project or department level
Without these capabilities, manual work increases, and it’s harder to maintain control over spending.
How Zahara Improves Your Accounting Software
Zahara integrates seamlessly with Xero, Sage Intacct, and QuickBooks Online to offer advanced automation tools tailored to your accounts payable process.
Here’s how Zahara can help:

- Multi-Step Approvals: Route approvals across departments with customizable rules, ensuring compliance and faster processing.
- Invoice Matching: Zahara’s system automatically matches supplier invoices with purchase orders and delivery notes, reducing errors and delays.
- Budget Control: Stay within your budget by tracking spend in real-time across projects or departments.
These features eliminate the need for manual data entry and back-and-forth email chains, giving your team more time to focus on strategic tasks.
