Penta & AP Automation: ERP Integration with DataServ
Streamline Construction AP with DataServ’s Penta ERP Integration
Penta ERP is designed specifically for construction companies. So is DataServ.
At DataServ, we understand that construction accounting is complex. Job costing, subcontractor compliance, retention tracking, retainage, and margin protection are all critical. Accurate, efficient accounts payable processes aren’t optional, they’re essential.
That’s why leading construction firms like Murphy Company that use Penta ERP trust DataServ’s AP automation platform. Don’t be fooled by other partners that have a more expensive solution! We have deep experience integrating with Penta, delivering cost-effective solutions that go beyond surface-level functionality. Our platform is built to work with the way construction companies actually operate. Dataserv offers tailoring capabilities, allowing us to tailor to your specific process flows.


Seamless Penta ERP Integration with No Surprises
DataServ has integrated with Penta, and we deliver proven, reliable integrations. Unlike other AP automation vendors, we don’t need to “learn as we go.” We come prepared, with a clear plan and proven integration models that match the way Penta is configured for construction workflows.
Key benefits of our Penta integration include:
- Prebuilt, proven integration models tailored for Penta ERP
- Expertise in construction accounting and job cost structure
- No on-premises software installation required
- Fast implementation with minimal internal IT burden
- Smooth, secure data flow between systems for complete visibility
Whether your Penta ERP is hosted on-premises or in the cloud, DataServ’s flexible platform integrates seamlessly.
AP Automation Designed for 2-Way Matching
Many construction companies rely on 2-way matching. DataServ excels at it. Or maybe you a general contractor that uses 3-way matching to bill directly to the client? DataServ has you covered, too.
Our platform is engineered to handle high-volume 2, 3, and 4-way match processes with precision and speed. You’ll benefit from:
- Fewer exceptions and faster approvals
- Accurate invoice matching to purchase orders
- Real-time visibility into invoice status and match results
- Custom matching logic configured to your business rules
- Time savings and reduced manual effort across the AP team
And while 2-way matching is common in construction, our platform also supports 3- and 4-way matching for teams that need more robust controls.


Built to Support Construction Job Costing
Penta’s strength is in job costing, and we fully support that functionality. Other AP providers may say they integrate with Penta, but most don’t understand the critical nuances of construction cost management. DataServ does.
Our AP automation ensures:
- Accurate allocation of costs by project/job, cost code, and phase
- Full GL and job cost integration with Penta ERP
- Clean data capture at the line-item level
- Reliable reporting and audit-ready documentation
- Better financial control across all jobs
- Project manager visibility and the ability to modify or approve invoices before payment
