Duplicate Payment Finder™

If you pay more than 10,000 vendor invoices each year, you are almost certainly making losses you know nothing about. Duplicate Payment Finder (DPF) is an accounts payable audit tool which identifies potential overpayments in present and past accounts payable data, either on a daily or weekly basis. Current accounting software does not cover the functionality within DPF and typically can only highlight simple duplicates.

Duplicate payments are caused by over 30 different reasons, many including vendor errors, factoring companies and sometimes fraud. Current accounts payable processes and manpower cannot protect against all of them. Duplicate Payment Finder™ highlights different types of duplications on six levels, supported with unique pattern matching and credit allocation functionality. It can highlight:

  • vendor errors
  • input and human errors
  • typographical mistakes
  • misallocated payments
  • process errors
  • compliancy issues
  • multi-vendor entries
  • unusual transactions
  • transactions across financial years
  • unauthorized annual renewals
  • internal and external fraud

Duplicate Payment Finder™ will act as a failsafe to all types of duplications mentioned, is very effective prior to a payment run and can analyze across several business units and financial years. It is an accounts payable audit tool that saves valuable AP time, improves invoice management processes and protects precious working capital.

If you still don’t believe you are making duplicate payments and you process more than 10,000 invoice per annum why not make sure and click here to apply for a free health check worth $995.
