What Is WickedFile?
WickedFile is the AP system of record for auto repair shops.
We turn messy vendor invoices, statements, credits, ROs, and transactions into a clean, automated AP workflow.
Shops use WickedFile to reconcile, validate, and code every dollar spent — so nothing slips through the cracks.
We give operators total visibility into their vendor activity, prevent hidden losses, and streamline the entire AP process from invoice upload → coding → payment decision.
WickedFile doesn’t replace your SMS or accounting system — it completes them by becoming the reconciliation layer they lack so that you close out statements with confidence.
How Do We Do It?
We unify all sources of shop financial activity into one workspace:
-
Ingest invoices, credits & statements using OCR + AI
-
Pull ROs from your SMS (Tekmetric, Shop-Ware, etc.)
-
Pull bank/credit card transactions via Plaid (optionally)
-
Pull accounting entries from QuickBooks Online (optionally)
WickedFile then auto-reconciles data against each other, surfacing only the invoice-level exceptions you need to fix.
Our system checks:
-
Did the invoice's parts all match to an RO, credit, or be marked as inventory?
-
Has the invoice matched a vendor statement?
-
Has the invoice matched to a bank transaction?
-
Has the invoice matched to an accounting entry?
This creates a closed-loop, invoice-first AP workflow that operators can complete daily — long before month-end close.
How Does This Benefit You?
We protect your margins by making the invisible visible.
Shops gain:
💰 Profit Leakage Prevention
Find unsold parts, untraceable invoices, uncredited parts that should have been returned, and cost discrepancies before money is lost.
⏱ Massive Time Savings
AI automatically codes invoices and surfaces only the exceptions — eliminating manual sorting, matching, and rework.
📘 Faster, Cleaner Month-End Close
30 days of coding → 1 day of closing statements.
No more 10-day sprint or guessing where money went.
📊 Full Financial Visibility
One workspace shows your invoices, parts, statements, transactions, and accounting connections — tied together intelligently.
🔒 Stronger Accountability
Every dollar is traceable. Every decision lives in a clean, audit-ready history.
The result: Cleaner books, tighter controls, more profit, and less chaos.
