Integration

Enterprise SSO and Identity for SutiAP with Microsoft Entra

SutiAP handles invoices that touch the most sensitive parts of your finance operation: vendor payments, approval authority, GL postings. Who has access to what matters as much as the data itself. The integration between SutiAP and Microsoft Entra puts your enterprise identity platform in charge of that access control, so IT keeps governance and finance gets a single sign-on experience.

Why SSO matters for AP

AP is where invoice approvals, payment authorizations, and vendor master data live. A compromised AP login is a fraud risk, an audit finding, and a compliance violation in one. Running AP outside of your corporate identity platform means user provisioning happens in two places, deprovisioning often gets missed, and audit-ready access logs live in a system separate from your security team’s tools.

Microsoft Entra solves all of that for the rest of your tech stack. This integration extends it to SutiAP.

What the integration does

  • Single sign-on into SutiAP from Microsoft Entra, with no separate password to manage.
  • Role-based access control mapped from Entra groups, so AP, finance, and approver roles are defined once in Entra and enforced everywhere.
  • Multi-factor authentication enforced on every SutiAP login, including invoice approvals that move money.
  • Automated user provisioning when someone joins finance, and automated deprovisioning the moment they leave or change roles.
  • Centralized audit logs of every SutiAP access event, available in your existing Entra and SIEM tools.

How it works

The integration uses standard SAML 2.0 and SCIM protocols. There is no custom code and no proprietary connector.

  1. Configure SutiAP as a SAML app in Microsoft Entra. Standard SAML setup; the team has done it dozens of times.
  2. Map Entra groups to SutiAP roles. Define which Entra groups get AP access, which get approver rights, and which get admin.
  3. Enable SCIM provisioning. User accounts in SutiAP get created, updated, and deactivated automatically based on Entra group membership.
  4. Test SSO with a pilot group. Validate the flow end to end before rolling out to the full team.
  5. Go live. Every user logs in through Entra; every access event is audited centrally.

What syncs between SutiAP and Entra

  • User identity and profile data (name, email, manager)
  • Group memberships and role assignments
  • Access permissions and policies
  • Authentication events and MFA challenges
  • User lifecycle changes (onboarding, role changes, offboarding)

Why this integration matters

AP is one of the highest-value targets in any finance system. The person who can approve a $50,000 invoice and authorize payment to a new vendor is a single point of failure if their account is compromised or their access does not get pulled when they leave. Centralizing that under Entra means access decisions follow your corporate security policy automatically, not someone’s memory to update a list.

For IT teams, this removes one more SaaS app from the shadow-IT category. For finance, it removes the password-management overhead. For auditors, it puts SutiAP access events in the same logs as everything else.

Who benefits from this integration

  • IT and security teams get a SutiAP that lives inside the same identity governance as the rest of the enterprise stack.
  • Finance teams get single sign-on with no extra password, no separate MFA app, and no forgotten credentials.
  • Compliance officers get audit-ready logs of every SutiAP access event, in the same SIEM as everything else.
  • CFOs get reduced fraud risk because the people who can approve payments are exactly the people Entra says they should be.
