What lost money looks like in practice

Illustrative examples based on the most common findings in procurement and AP data. Your audit runs on your own invoices, orders, receipts and contracts.

Duplicate payment$48,200

The invoice that was paid twice

A supplier resubmits invoice #INV-4417 with a new date after a system migration. The amounts match, the vendor matches, but ValueFynder flags the identical line items and bank details against the original payment.

How it's caught: Matched on supplier, amount, line items and bank account, not just invoice number.

Contract price mismatch$31,750

The price that quietly crept up

A framework agreement fixes unit prices for 24 months. From month 9, invoices arrive 6.5% above the contracted rate. ValueFynder compares every invoice line against the contract price and the PO, and totals the overcharge.

How it's caught: Line-by-line invoice vs. contract and purchase-order price comparison.

Missed rebate$62,400

The rebate nobody claimed

Annual volume with a packaging supplier crosses the $2M tier that triggers a 3% rebate. Nobody tracks the threshold, so the credit note is never requested. ValueFynder accumulates spend per contract and flags the earned-but-unclaimed rebate.

How it's caught: Cumulative spend tracked against contract tier thresholds.

Quantity shortfall$18,900

Billed for 1,200, received 1,000

Goods receipts show 1,000 units booked in; the invoice bills 1,200. Across a year of repeat orders the gap adds up. ValueFynder matches invoice quantities to receipt records within a date window and flags the shortfall.

How it's caught: Invoice lines matched to goods receipts by item, PO and date.

Missed early-payment discount$9,640

The discount that expired on paper only

Terms grant 2% for payment within 10 days. AP pays on day 8, but at the full amount. ValueFynder checks payment dates against negotiated terms and identifies the discount that should have been taken.

How it's caught: Payment dates cross-checked against contract payment terms.

Uncontracted charge$27,300

The freight surcharge that was never agreed

A logistics provider adds a 'fuel adjustment' line that appears in no contract. It is small per invoice, and six figures in aggregate. ValueFynder flags invoice lines with no matching contract or PO coverage.

How it's caught: Every invoice line must trace to a contracted or ordered item.
