Post and convert a PDF invoice to LEDES as a company user

Company users with permission to post invoices can upload a PDF or other non-LEDES invoice and convert it to LEDES format on behalf of any law firm. The firm's PDF conversion settings don’t apply when a company user posts the invoice.
When posting invoices on behalf of a law firm, you can convert non-LEDES invoices to LEDES directly from the
Post invoice
page. This removes the need for the law firm to resubmit the invoice and keeps the auditing and approval process efficient.
This feature is available to customers who have subscribed to the AI-powered PDF to LEDES converter.
