# How to Make Sure Vendors Receive the Payment Receipt File

## To make sure vendors receive their payment receipt file, AP teams need to add the vendor’s email address in the "Notify vendor" field when creating or updating a bill.

### When Creating a New Bill

 1\. In the bill creation page, go to the **Vendor** section.

2\. In the **Notify vendor** field, add the vendor’s email address by selecting the contact from the drop down list. You can choose to add multiple contacts here as well.

4\. Enter the contact’s details, including their email address. Turn on the **Main Contact** toggel is the vendor contact is the primary contact.

6\. Save the bill to process.

Once the payment is processed, the payment receipt file will be sent to the email address automatically.

1\. Click **Edit pencil icon** to edit the respective bill.
