What to provide

The AP invoice listing with supplier, number, date and amount, and the payment status.

Workflow

  1. List invoices by supplier.
  2. Match near-identical number, date and amount combinations.
  3. Flag probable duplicates not yet paid, and paid ones for recovery review.
  4. Return the scan without blocking payments.

Output contract

Supplier | invoice A | invoice B | match basis | paid | reviewer

Fictional acceptance test

Fictional listing: 140 invoices; 2 pairs match on supplier, amount and near-identical numbers (INV-1041 and INV-104I), 1 pair already paid totaling 56,400. Flag 2 pairs, 1 for recovery review.

Review gates and limits

Re-check credit notes before calling a pair duplicate. Payment holds and recovery are approved actions, never automatic.
