Meet the system of action for production finance.

Get Started

Every time your work leaves Wrapbook and comes back, it’s another step that slows you down, and another opportunity to introduce errors. So this quarter, we cut down on the back-and-forth. That means fewer handoffs, less waiting, and more momentum: from timecards to approvals to reports, here’s how Wrapbook is helping you move faster without giving up control.

Production payroll

This quarter's payroll updates give your team more control over when items get paid, how a day gets coded, and how quickly transactions get categorized.

Pay what’s ready, hold the rest

A single timecard used to carry both wages and expenses. That meant the whole card waited on whichever line was slowest, and a mixed card could only be reversed all at once. Now, you can select the items you're not ready to pay, move them to a second timecard, and batch that card on its own schedule. If a batch needs explaining, that note travels with the card, so nothing’s lost in translation.

Split one day across every code it touched

A shooting day that covered multiple episodes used to get coded to one, then fixed after payroll was run. Now, you can split a shift or allowance across your project's account codes right in the timecard, by hours, percentage, or dollar amount, before payroll runs.

Accounts Payable

This quarter's AP updates cut down the manual steps between receiving an invoice and paying it, with more control over who can act along the way.

Move through AP faster, from PO to payment

Accounts Payable picked up speed at every step this summer, from setting up vendors to sending payments. As of this summer, you can: 

  • Process hundreds of invoices at once: Just upload a file and Wrapbook extracts the details and matches them to the right POs in seconds. All you do is double-check, then approve with a click.
  • Work through invoices faster. Now, the information you care about stays visible while you scroll through distribution lines, while bulk editing cuts down on the number of clicks. 
  • Use custom permissions to control who can create or edit vendor data.
  • Create conditional approval chains to route the right invoices to the right people in the right order.
  • Get a certified cover sheet when an invoice is approved.

Speed through coding with Code Assist

Hand-coding every transaction is the daily tax on clean books. Code Assist suggests the right account and tag codes for you based on transaction descriptions and historic vendor patterns.  All you have to do is tab through to accept what's right and fix what’s not. Suggestions never post without your thumbs-up, and Code Assist will never overwrite a row you’ve already worked in, so you can move faster without giving up any control.

Send Direct ACH vendor payments, right from Accounts Payable

You can now send payments straight from the AP flow with Wrapbook’s free Direct ACH vendor payments. Just connect your bank account, and start paying invoices with a click. There’s no file management, no data re-entry, and no bank fees. (Of course, all the old payment methods still work the same.)

Accounting

On the accounting side, this quarter's work focused on making your reports fit the way each stakeholder needs to see them.

Multiple COAs? No problem

Sometimes a stakeholder needs reports to conform to their own COA, rather than yours. Until now you had to either work in the funder's unfamiliar accounts and convert every export back in Excel, or keep your own and re-map into theirs before sending. Both were time-consuming and thankless.

With custom COA-mapping, all you have to do is map the charts onto each other once. From that point on, you can generate and share your cost report, trial balance, and project general ledger in whichever format your stakeholders need. It’s that easy.

Reports

This quarter's reporting updates put more of the reports your team relies on within reach, without a request or a wait.

Run more of your reports yourself

We’ve made it even easier to get the answers you need without waiting on anyone. Not only have we added new reports, but many of the reports you used to request from Client Ops are now yours to run out of the box in Wrapbook. Getting to any report is faster too, with reorganized report pages and the option to run AP reports right from Accounts Payable. Of course, every report is still as adjustable as ever: pick your columns, filter to the data you want, and view it your way.

What_s New in Wrapbook - Summer 2026 - Create Payroll Reports

New reports

Now, Wrapbook users can generate these reports out of the box:

Payroll reports (3)
  • Department Crew List: A list of all crew members grouped by department, including job title, contact information, home address, and onboarding status.
  • Worker Details: A complete list of all workers on the project with their role, department, deal terms, union, and onboarding status.
  • Worker Contribution Report (Coming soon): A detailed, worker-level breakdown of union and benefit fund contributions to help ensure remittances are properly tracked and paid.
Accounting reports (3)
  • Multi-company reporting (Coming soon)
  • Episodic cost reports
  • Mapped cost reports
Accounts Payable reports (5)
  • AP history report: Review posted AP invoices.
  • Payment register history: Summary of AP payments.
  • Payment register history by vendor: Paid invoices grouped by vendor with full invoice details.
  • Payment register history with invoice & details: Paid invoices with full invoice details.
  • Payment register history with invoice summary: AP payments with an invoice summary.

We've also made existing reports easier to use. You can now run AP reports directly from Accounts Payable instead of only from Reporting, build reports based on effective date, and find reports more easily with a consistent layout and categories across every reporting page. (1099 and tax filing reports now live in Company Reports.)

Wrapping up

Every update this quarter goes after the same problem: the moments when work has to leave Wrapbook to get done. Moving items to a second timecard, splitting a day across episodes, paying vendors directly from AP, and reporting in a stakeholder's own chart of accounts each remove a trip to a spreadsheet, a bank portal, or someone else's inbox. That means fewer handoffs, fewer places for errors to creep in, and a team that keeps moving while staying in control of every approval.
