The next standard in production payroll and accounting is here.

Get Started

Welcome to November! This month, we’re continuing to simplify and automate the way you work—from onboarding, to payroll, to accounts payable. November’s updates introduce smarter automation, stronger compliance safeguards, and greater visibility across your productions.

Here’s what’s new.

Automate your startwork approvals

Getting startwork approved shouldn’t slow down your shoot. With Wrapbook’s new automated startwork approvals, you can customize your approval flow to keep things moving.

  • Create custom approval chains based on role, department, or worker type.
  • Automatically route startwork to the right approvers every time.
  • Track approval progress in real time with clear visual indicators.
  • Configure once at the company level, and apply to as many projects as you need.

This automation gives your production teams the control and speed they need—without the back-and-forth emailing.

What_s New in Wrapbook - Nov 2025 - Startwork Approvals

Block payments until I-9s are verified

Stay compliant before payroll even runs. A new optional safeguard lets you block payments until a worker’s I-9 is verified, giving you more control over your compliance process.

  • Prevent payment until verification is complete.
  • Turn this feature on or off depending on your company’s workflow.

This feature ensures your team remains audit-ready without slowing down your payroll.

Accelerate accounts payable with AI

Manual data entry and PO matching are now things of the past. Wrapbook’s AI-powered AP tools transform how your team manages invoices—delivering faster processing, fewer errors, and total visibility across every project.

  • Save hours every week with automation that reads invoices, extracts key data, and matches them to the right POs instantly.
  • Boost accuracy and control with side-by-side document validation and built-in duplicate detection.
  • Gain real-time insight into every transaction, all from one unified grid that brings invoices, POs, and status updates together.

With Wrapbook, finance teams can speed through invoices, reconcile spend effortlessly, and focus on analysis instead of admin. And there’s more on the horizon.

Coming soon: vendor payments, powered by AI

We’re taking accounts payable one step further. Soon, you’ll be able to:

  • Send ACH payments directly to vendors—entirely within Wrapbook. 
  • Batch or schedule invoice payments.
  • Keep every PO, invoice, and spend detail connected in one view.

This means you’ll be able to manage your whole AP process—from PO to payment—in one place. No more exporting files or using third-party payment platforms as a workaround.

Wrapping up

From smarter approvals to automated compliance to AI-powered accounting, November’s updates are all about freeing up your team to focus on creative and strategic work—not paperwork.
