Payment Matching Desk
Match incoming bank payments to open invoices automatically, exceptions to a human.
Available for discovery and a custom proposal after we understand your context
Overview
Turn an everyday problem into a clear workflow
Money arrives with unhelpful references; someone plays detective every morning.
Teams this is designed for
Finance teams with many small B2B payments.
What it includes
Bank line to invoice matching by amount, customer, date and history
Suggestion queue with human confirmation
Unmatched-item aging report
The intended outcome
Morning detective work becomes a short confirmation queue.
Workflow
How would this work in practice?
An illustrative situation
This scenario explains a possible workflow; it is not a customer case study.
The starting point
One bank transfer appears to cover two invoices.
The proposed workflow
The system proposes an allocation using amount, date and customer references.
An output to examine
Finance confirms the split or leaves it open with a reason.
The engagement path
Understand the workflow
Review the current process, representative data, constraints and the people responsible for decisions.
Agree the scope first
Define feasibility, inputs, proposed deliverables and acceptance criteria before preparing a tailored implementation proposal.
Review before expanding
Decide the next step from observed results. Any production rollout, training and ongoing support are specified in the agreed proposal.
Inputs & deliverables
What do we start with, and what do you receive?
Inputs we discuss
- Bank receipt lines and open invoices
- Customer references and allocation rules
Proposed deliverables
- Suggested receipt-to-invoice allocations
- An unresolved-receipt queue with reasons
Scope and responsibilities
Financial outputs are reviewed by authorized people before posting, payment or customer communication. The workflow supports judgment; it does not guarantee collection or financial outcomes.
Success measures
How will we evaluate the result?
- Approved match rate
- Unapplied receipt age and review time
Your team agrees the baseline, target and measurement method before implementation. Results depend on data quality and the operating context.
Questions
Common questions
What should we share to start?
A short description of the process, a few representative examples and the decision owner are enough for the first conversation. Do not send confidential files through the public request form.
Is this ready-to-buy software?
This is a scoping engagement. The page describes a potential delivery direction; feasibility, integration, price and timing need discovery and an agreed proposal.
Do we need to replace our current systems?
Not automatically. We first examine the existing tools and access methods. Keeping, connecting or replacing a component is an explicit scope decision.
