Duplicate disbursements are one of frequent types of overpayment mistakes that transpire within the accounts payable management function. The Institute of Internal Auditors have highlighted that duplicate payments make up between 0.5% and 0.1% of annual supplier bill payments which means one in a 1000 bills could be a duplicate. If your company makes £50 million in annual invoice payments you are possibly paying out £50,000 or more in duplicate payments per year..
How Do They Happen?
A normal invoice entry includes an invoice number, date, amount, vendor number and many other fields. If any of these fields are typed wrongly or inconsistently, the system’s inherent check for duplicate payment will not be effective. Add to this fact there might not be a defined invoice numbering system it’s clear to witness how overpayments can slip through the net.
