Supplier Invoice Approval Evidence Check

Check that supplier invoices carry matching purchase orders and approvals before payment runs.

What to provide

The invoice batch, the purchase orders, the goods receipts and the approval log.

Workflow

1. List invoices due in the next payment run.
2. Match each invoice to its purchase order and receipt.
3. Flag invoices missing match or approval evidence.
4. Return the check without releasing payments.

Output contract

Invoice | supplier | PO match | receipt | approval | flag | reviewer

Fictional acceptance test

Fictional run: 12 invoices; 9 are fully matched and approved, 2 lack goods receipts and 1 has no approval. Flag 3 invoices.

Review gates and limits

Re-check partial receipts before flagging. The check holds evidence gaps; it never stops a payment alone.
