Payables Agent introduces a free trial mode that any user can start without help from an administrator or having paid credits.

You can start the trial directly from the agent setup card or from the Purchase Invoices page. You don't need to have an administrator role or configure an email account. You upload invoice PDFs manually to start processing, bypassing the email-based sourcing flow entirely. The trial activates immediately the first time you upload an invoice. The trial includes 50 free invoice uploads. Each upload counts against the quota. You can track your remaining quota on the agent setup card throughout the trial.
