## Short answer

Medius announced a partnership with Antaras to offer a pre-packaged connector linking Medius AP Automation to Infor LN CloudSuite for touchless invoice processing. Antaras is described as an Infor Gold Channel Partner. Medius is a cloud AP product, so this suits CloudSuite deployments better than fully air-gapped ones.

## Erp

## Erp Key

## On Prem

## Product

Medius + Antaras connector for Infor LN CloudSuite

## Vendor

Antaras (Infor Gold Channel Partner) / Medius

## Category

AP automation and invoice capture

## Integration

**Method:** Pre-packaged connector built by Antaras

**Detail:** The announcement describes a ready-made connector rather than a custom build. Confirm with Antaras and Medius which LN CloudSuite releases it supports and which objects it reads and writes.

**Method:** Master data sync and invoice posting

**Detail:** In AP automation connectors generally, suppliers, POs, receipts and accounts sync from the ERP, and approved invoices post back. The exact scope of this connector should come from the vendors, not be assumed.

## Data Flows

**From:** Infor LN CloudSuite

**To:** Medius

**Data:** Suppliers, open POs, receipts, GL accounts and dimensions

**Trigger:** Scheduled sync

**From:** Supplier

**To:** Medius

**Data:** Invoices by email, portal or e-invoice

**Trigger:** Invoice received

**From:** Medius

**To:** Approvers

**Data:** Coding and approval tasks

**Trigger:** After capture and matching

**From:** Medius

**To:** Infor LN CloudSuite

**Data:** Approved invoice for posting

**Trigger:** Final approval

**From:** Infor LN CloudSuite

**To:** Medius

**Data:** Posting status and payment status

**Trigger:** After posting or payment run

## Setup

### Get the connector scope in writing

**Detail:** Ask Antaras for supported objects, versions and what is not covered.

### Clean supplier master data

**Detail:** Remove duplicates and fix tax numbers before sync, because matching depends on them.

### Map accounting dimensions

**Detail:** Align LN GL accounts, cost centers and projects with Medius coding screens.

### Define matching rules

**Detail:** Choose two-way or three-way match tolerances per supplier group.

### Design approval workflows

**Detail:** Set limits and delegates; keep them consistent with LN authorizations.

### Test posting in a non-production tenant

**Detail:** Post invoices with and without POs, credit notes and foreign currency.

### Go live by supplier wave

**Detail:** Start with high-volume suppliers and widen as exception rates drop.

## Pitfalls

- Supplier master duplicates causing the wrong supplier match.
- PO receipts posted late in LN, so three-way match fails even though goods arrived.
- Tax code mapping that works for domestic invoices but not intra-community or import invoices.
- Approvals that differ between Medius and LN, so a person is blocked in one system.
- Credit notes and partial invoices handled as exceptions by default.
- Treating 'touchless' as a promise; it is a rate that rises as data and rules improve.

## Ai Layer

### Exception explanation

**Description:** A private assistant reads a stuck invoice, the LN PO and receipt, and states which line or field blocks the match for the clerk.

### Supplier data hygiene

**Description:** It finds probable duplicate suppliers and missing tax data in LN before they cause match failures.

### Spend questions

**Description:** AP managers ask plain-language questions about invoice backlog and aging, answered read-only from both systems.

### Receipt chasing drafts

**Description:** It drafts a message to the warehouse about missing receipts for approval before sending.

## Alternatives

- Use a different AP product with an Infor-documented connector if you prefer another vendor.
- Use EDI invoices from key suppliers, which avoids capture altogether.
- Use manual entry with LN's own approval flow if volumes are low.

## Faq

### Is the Medius connector for LN official?

**Answer:** It was announced as a pre-packaged connector from Antaras, described as an Infor Gold Channel Partner, linking Medius AP Automation to LN CloudSuite. Confirm current supported versions and scope with them.

### Will it work with on-prem LN?

**Answer:** The announcement refers to LN CloudSuite. If you run on-prem LN, ask Antaras directly whether and how the connector applies, since Medius itself is a cloud service.

### What does touchless mean?

**Answer:** Invoices are captured, matched and posted without human handling when data and tolerances line up. Expect a share of invoices to still need review, especially early on.

### Who maintains it?

**Answer:** A pre-packaged connector is maintained by its builder, but you still own master data, mapping and approvals. Plan testing with each LN update.
