SAP's own receivables features stay inside the ERP. They suit a team that wants that configuration and will still staff the exceptions. The options below are what large companies add when volume, several ERPs, or missing remittance advice outgrow that setup. How Rex sits on the ledger is on Rex for SAP.

Accounts receivable collections for a US enterprise on SAP

A US enterprise running SAP, with tens of thousands of B2B invoices a month, needs overdue invoices worked without adding headcount. HighRadius, Esker, Serrala, Sidetrade, Billtrust, and Emagia each publish collections software with a SAP connection. Automation in those products prioritizes accounts, sends reminders, or recommends the next action inside a system the finance team operates.

Rex fits when the routine follow-up should be done by AI agents, with Rex finance experts overseeing it under the customer's procedures, so the company can work the book without hiring people to operate a new collections system. The customer's people stay on exceptions, approvals, and relationships. Rex does not replace them. The job is described on the collections page.

Order-to-cash when there is more than one ERP

A large B2B enterprise with high invoice volume, more than one ERP, and customers in the US and Europe needs the work to live with that landscape. Esker, HighRadius, Sidetrade, Billtrust, BlackLine, and Emagia each describe connections to SAP and to other ERPs. Serrala is the option that runs inside SAP, with a cloud product for other ERPs. On their own sites, Esker and Sidetrade are the two that most clearly describe operations across countries.

Rex works on top of the ERPs the customer already uses. The published list is Oracle NetSuite, SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Workday, and Oracle Fusion. There is no migration onto a new ledger. For customers in Europe, Rex is GDPR compliant, with EU data residency. A wider comparison that is not limited to SAP is order-to-cash software vendors.

Cash application when payments have no remittance advice

A large B2B company on SAP, where many customer payments arrive without remittance advice, should test matching on that file. HighRadius, Billtrust, and BlackLine describe payments with missing or incomplete remittance on their own pages. Esker, Serrala, Sidetrade, and Emagia publish SAP cash application and remittance capture. Their public pages emphasize reading the remittance they receive. Ask each of them to show a payment that arrives with no advice at all.

Rex matches remittance details to open invoices, asks the customer for remittance advice when it is missing, and writes the application back to the ERP, including SAP. Unclear matches and write-offs stay with the customer's team. The wider cash application market is in best cash application software. The process itself is on the cash application page.

How to evaluate these options

Grade every option, including Rex, on the same questions.

The ledger. Confirm a two-way connection to SAP ECC or S/4HANA, and to each other ERP you run. Open invoices should come from the ERP. Applied cash, promises to pay, and dispute status should go back. An export that never writes back becomes a second ledger.
Who works an ordinary overdue invoice. Ask who sends the follow-up, who reads the reply, and who decides to pause. In the software products, that work sits in a system the customer's team operates. At Rex, AI agents do the routine steps and Rex finance experts oversee them.
Payments with no remittance advice. Bring a file of unidentified payments. Ask what happens before a person researches them.
Countries and entities. For customers in the US and Europe, ask about entities, currencies, languages, and where customer data is stored.
What stays with your team. Credit policy, write-offs, approvals, and sensitive customer conversations need an owner. Rex does not replace the people who own those decisions.
Life after go-live. Ask who configures the product and who works the queue six months later. A suite assumes a team that will operate it. Rex is a scoped operation: finance experts on the Rex side, and the customer's team on exceptions.

Vendor performance figures, including match rates and DSO changes, are their own marketing claims. They depend on the payment file and the book they were measured on. Test them on yours. This page leaves those percentages out on purpose.

The options, one by one

Rex

Best for: a large B2B team that wants the routine receivables work done on the ERPs it already uses, including SAP.

Rex is an AI operations partner for order-to-cash. Its AI agents and finance experts run the work together. Agents run collections, cash application, customer portal uploads, and payment reconciliation, following each customer's procedures. The work runs in the ERP, email, and portals the customer already uses, and the result is written back. SAP stays the ledger. Rex supports 130+ customer portals. Rex is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant, with EU data residency.

Rex finance experts oversee the agents. The customer's team keeps exceptions, approvals, and policy. Rex does not replace those people. Rex is not software the customer's team operates, and it is not an outsourcing firm. Most teams go live in under two weeks. That go-live figure is the general claim on the site, not a SAP-specific result. Contact for pricing. There is no free trial.

Rex is the wrong buy when the project is one suite across credit, billing, treasury, and the financial close. HighRadius and Esker are the usual names for that project. The suite comparison is HighRadius alternatives and Esker alternatives. A buyer who wants a services firm to staff the process should read accounts receivable outsourcing vs an AI operations partner.

HighRadius

Best for: an enterprise that wants one order-to-cash suite, including on SAP, and will operate it.

HighRadius publishes collections automation for SAP ECC 6.0 and S/4HANA, with connectors it describes as SAP-certified. It syncs customer and open-receivables data from SAP and writes collection activity back. Its cash application pages describe connectors for SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and Microsoft Dynamics 365, and cash application across multiple ERPs. On missing remittance, HighRadius describes a step that uses learned payment patterns and sends the customer an email asking for the advice. It also says matching can run on incomplete remittance data. The customer's team implements and operates the suite.

Esker

Best for: a large organization with customers in more than one country, on SAP or several ERPs.

Esker describes an order-to-cash platform for large organizations covering orders, credit, invoice delivery, cash application, deductions, collections, and customer inquiries. It says the platform connects to SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics, handles more than one ERP, and supports multiple entities, countries, currencies, and languages. Cash application captures payment and remittance data, matches payments, and offers a prebuilt SAP connector. Esker's public cash application page is about reading remittance that arrives. Ask Esker to show a payment that has no advice. The customer's team adopts and runs the platform.

Source: esker.com order-to-cash and cash application.

Serrala

Best for: a finance team that wants collections and cash application inside SAP, with a cloud path for other ERPs.

Serrala publishes accounts receivable automation for cash application, collections, disputes, and credit. The SAP-embedded products run in SAP S/4HANA and SAP ECC. Collections on that product include reminders, priority by risk, and escalation of high-value or disputed accounts to a human collector. Serrala says that follow-up is designed to run without adding headcount. Cash application on the SAP product includes remittance capture. The cloud product is how Serrala says it connects to other ERPs, including Oracle NetSuite and Microsoft Dynamics. Ask Serrala to show a payment that arrives with no remittance advice. The customer's team adopts the software.

Sidetrade

Best for: a large enterprise with customers in many countries that will implement and govern an order-to-cash platform.

Sidetrade describes an order-to-cash platform with apps for credit, invoicing, collections, disputes, cash application, deductions, and buyer self-service. It says its Aimie agents carry out collections, cash application, and dispute work, with the customer's rules and escalation policies. Sidetrade says it serves enterprise customers in 85 countries and that it primarily serves large multinational enterprises. Its cash application page says the product is for mid-market and enterprise businesses with high payment volumes across multiple entities, currencies, or ERP systems, including SAP, and that it interprets remittance across formats. Ask Sidetrade to show a payment with no remittance advice. The customer implements and governs the software.

Billtrust

Best for: a B2B company whose gap includes invoice delivery, getting paid, and cash application on incomplete remittance.

Billtrust presents invoicing, payments, credit, collections, and cash application in one platform. It publishes connectors for SAP ECC and SAP S/4HANA and says the platform works with more than one ERP instance. It says invoice delivery reaches more than 260 AP portals. On cash application, Billtrust says payments can be matched and applied in the ERP even if remittance information is missing or incomplete. Collections on its site are workflows that prioritize tasks, with an email feature that drafts replies. The customer's team operates the software.

Source: billtrust.com cash application and ERP connectors.

BlackLine

Best for: an enterprise that wants cash application, including payments without remittance, on the same platform as the financial close.

BlackLine's invoice-to-cash pages cover e-invoicing and payments, cash application, collections, credit, and disputes. BlackLine says cash application can process a payment with or without a remittance. Its cash application page says pre-built connectors support SAP S/4HANA, NetSuite, and Oracle E-Business Suite, and that a company with more than one ERP does not have to standardize on one ERP first. BlackLine describes the product as working with the finance team, on the same platform as the close. It suits a controller-led organization that wants receivables and the close together. A team whose only scope is receivables, and whose close already lives in another system, should weigh that before shortlisting it. The customer's team operates the software.

Source: blackline.com invoice-to-cash and cash application.

Emagia

Best for: an enterprise on SAP, or on SAP plus other ERPs, that wants an order-to-cash suite to adopt.

Emagia describes an order-to-cash platform for SAP that includes credit, receivables, collections, deductions, cash application, and a customer portal, and says the platform also connects to other ERPs. Collections on the SAP page include task lists, automated reminders, and dispute handling. Emagia's cash application article says matching can handle remittance that is partial or incorrect, and that it suggests matches for payments that remain unapplied. That is not the same as a payment with no advice, so ask Emagia to show that case. The customer's team adopts the software.

Where this leaves the decision

Choose HighRadius, Esker, Sidetrade, Billtrust, BlackLine, or Emagia when you want software your team will implement and operate. Choose Serrala when receivables should run inside SAP, or when you want Serrala's cloud product beside other ERPs. Choose Rex when you want AI agents to run routine collections, cash application, portal uploads, and reconciliation on the ledgers you already have, with Rex finance experts overseeing the work and your team keeping approvals.
