Early payment discounts, set up and captured in Coupa Pay

DataMap configures Coupa Pay's static and dynamic discounting, enrolls the suppliers worth enrolling, and clears the blocked payment accounts and late approvals that make discounts lapse. Your treasury team decides the rate and how much cash to commit.

Early payment discounts

A discount you only get if the invoice is ready in time

An early payment discount is a lower invoice amount in exchange for paying a supplier before the due date. Terms of 2/10 net 30 take 2% off for paying in 10 days instead of 30, which works out to about 37% a year on the cash. The discount is lost when the supplier was never enrolled, when the invoice sits in approval past the window, or when a payment account blocks the run.

Setup

Static and dynamic discounting, configured in Coupa Pay

Static discounting sets the rate when the invoice or PO is created. Dynamic discounting lets a supplier offer a rate after you approve the invoice. We configure the programs you choose with your minimum annual rate, committed funds, and payment timing, and reconcile the discounted payments in your ERP.

Suppliers

Suppliers enrolled, because they can't enroll themselves

Coupa's early pay programs are buyer-led. You enroll each supplier, and the supplier then accepts offers or turns on auto-discounting in the Coupa Supplier Portal. We pick the suppliers whose spend and terms make it worth asking, run the outreach, and answer their questions.

Capture

No discount lost to a blocked payment account

A discount only counts if the invoice is approved and payable inside the window. SP Auditor, our Coupa Marketplace app, flags invoices blocked by missing or inactive supplier payment accounts on the Coupa homepage, and we chase the approvals that hold up the rest.
