The AP Automation Your HQ Has Been Waiting For.

You’ve seen how ministries are freeing staff, preventing burnout, and securing payments with the ShelbyNext + AvidXchange integration.
Now make it real for your headquarters.

Turn complexity into confidence

Why Change Matters Now

Paper checks. Email approvals. Vendor confusion. Every manual step adds friction, risk, and burnout. Headquarter finance teams shouldn’t be buried in busywork, they should be focused on stewardship.

Disconnected Data Reporting
  • Lacking a single view of contributions across ministries, campuses, and entities
  • Data lives in different places; spreadsheets, individual church systems, or outdated reports
  • Scattered records turn reporting into guesswork, draining time and trust 
Complex Apportionment Tracking
  • Tracking apportionments and remittances across multiple churches is tedious and error-prone
  • Inconsistent reporting makes it difficult to see which ministries have submitted payments, how funds are distributed, or whether totals align with expectations
  • Disorganized remittance data turns stewardship into a scramble, straining trust between headquarters and local churches
Manual Loan Mismanagement
  • Managing loans of affiliated ministries often creates blind spots in balances, due dates, and repayment history
  • No centralized system; tracking interest, reconciling payments, and ensuring accuracy across entities becomes time-consuming
  • Disjointed loan tracking leads to errors, obscures repayment status, leaving financial leaders questioning their data. 
Fraud Monitoring
Automated Disbursement
Real-time Status & Remittance
