The shape of this problem

A human reads it and types it in again

The problem

AP teams were manually comparing supplier PDFs, iSupplier entries, and Oracle ERP records. Three-way matching is the kind of work that is too rule-bound to be interesting and too variable to script: the same supplier's invoice arrives in a different layout each quarter, and the discrepancies that matter are small ones buried among formatting differences that do not. Because the check was manual it was also quietly sampled under load - which is exactly when errors are most likely.

What we built

We used a multimodal vision model and a managed model platform to extract invoice fields, reconcile all three sources, flag mismatches, and support correction notifications back to the supplier.

What moved

Measure Before After
Invoices reconciled across supplier PDF, iSupplier and ERP a sample under load 100%
Average validation time per invoice 12 minutes 45 seconds
Repeat mismatches from the same supplier after correction notices down 67%

† Measured against the prior level of the same measure.

Average validation time per invoice

Before 12 minutes After 45 seconds

Repeat mismatches from the same supplier after correction notices

Prior level 0 100 200 down 67%

Measured against the client's own prior process, indexed to 100. The source publishes the size of the movement, not the absolute figure it moved from.

Figures are from the practice's own delivery records for the engagement named, measured against the process that preceded it.

What it turned on

Closing the loop back to the supplier is what stopped the same mismatch recurring every month - detection alone would have relocated the work rather than removed it. Relevant to finance operations whose control is technically three-way matching and practically a sample.
