Exceptions are a frustratingly common problem in Accounts Payable (AP) teams. While they aren’t insurmountable, resolving exceptions consumes time and money, particularly if there isn’t a systematic approach within the AP department to addressing them. Exceptions occur for many reasons, including incorrect payment amounts, unmatched data, duplicate payments, and invalid invoices but, in a busy Accounts Payable department with hundreds of statements arriving daily, it can be challenging to know in which order to deal with them.

Statement-Matching.com allows users to prioritise exceptions based on the causes of the error. Integral to this process is the search screen tool: in this article, we’ll explain how this can help you to manage exceptions for accurately and efficiently.

 

The Statement-Matching.com Search Screen Tool

The search screen allows users to search by different filters, such as:

  • Company code
  • Supplier range
  • Statement from/to date
  • Statement status
  • Entry from/to date

 

Users can also customise searches by document status, including:

  • New
  • Fully matched
  • Fully matched with data mismatches
  • Unpaid items missing on statement
  • Incomplete matching

Searches can be saved to run automatically in future, saving time on processing regular search queries.

During a search, each results column can be sorted and filtered for relevancy, so users can organise the list based on statement total, date, or status.
