Capture an invoice from email
Well reads the invoice PDF from a Gmail attachment and forwards it to Bill.com's email-in address with the sender and date attached, so the bill arrives ready for approval.
Gmail attachments become Bill.com bills with a one-step path from inbox to your scheduling step; credit-note matching happens inside Well before delivery.
The Gmail integration turns your inbox into an automated invoice capture flow.
The Bill.
Suppliers email invoices as PDF attachments; Bill.com structures bills for approval workflows and scheduled payment.
Connecting Gmail to Bill. com through Well reads each emailed invoice, extracts the vendor and amount, drafts a Bill. com bill with the PDF attached, and routes the bill into the configured approval workflow. Gmail pushes new message events to Well via Pub/Sub; Bill. com creates the bill from the forwarded PDF and enters it into your approval workflow at that cadence.

The sender, subject, and date from Gmail ride along on the document sent to Bill.com, so each bill traces back to the message that delivered it.
The details Well reads from the attachment reach Bill.com on the forwarded document, so your team is not re-typing figures from the inbox.
When the same invoice is forwarded twice in Gmail, Well keeps one before sending to Bill.com, so approvals do not stack duplicates.
