This page provides ready-to-use prompts for AI autofill custom fields. Copy one into the Prompt field of your custom field, and adapt the wording and option values to your own process.

Reason for non-payment

Answers the most common question in collections: why is this invoice still unpaid? The AI reviews your email threads, payment attempts, invoice data, and notes, then picks the main blocker — ready to filter and act on from the invoice list view. Set up the field:
  • Object: Invoice
  • Name: Reason for non-payment
  • Type: Single select
  • Options: AP approval delay, Bank or processor failure, Billing data is wrong or incomplete, Cash-flow issues, Commercial mismatch, Company is bankrupt, Intentional holdback, Invoice dispute, Issue with PO (mismatch or missing), Payment execution issue, Payment failed for insufficient funds, Unknown
  • Search across the web: enabled — the prompt asks the AI to check public sources for bankruptcy signals
Prompt:
If you adjust the option values, update the matching definitions in the prompt so the AI knows what each option means.

Company risk status

Flags customers that may not be able to pay at all — in administration, bankrupt, or already dissolved — by checking public registries and news rather than your own records. Set up the field:
  • Object: Customer
  • Name: Company risk status
  • Type: Single select
  • Options: Active, In Administration, Bankruptcy, Dissolved, Unknown
  • Search across the web: enabled — lets the AI check company registries and recent news for the company’s legal status
Prompt:
Set this field on the customer, not the invoice. A company’s legal status doesn’t change per invoice, and checking at the customer level means the AI runs the web search once rather than repeating it for every open invoice.

Write your own prompts

A few tips when adapting this prompt or writing new ones:
  • Ask about one thing per field. If you want to track two pieces of information, create two custom fields.
  • Match the question to the field type: a yes/no question for a boolean field, a date question for a date field, and so on.
  • For select fields, the AI picks among the values you have defined for the field — use clear, distinct option names.
  • For select fields with many options, follow the structure of the Reason for non-payment prompt above: state the AI’s role and task, define each option, and say what to do when evidence is weak.
If the AI cannot find a confident answer, it will leave the field empty rather than guess.
