Supplier Bank Detail Verification

Check a supplier's bank change request against the record and against how invoice redirection fraud actually presents — before anyone updates a payment destination.

About the Agent

Challenges Supplier Bank Detail Verification addresses

Done by hand, purchase to pay means gathering the change request and what is on record, working through 2 separate passes over the same material, then producing verdict, what to do before anything changes and fraud indicators present. None of it is difficult and all of it is exacting, which is the combination people are worst at holding. The errors that matter are the ones a tired reader does not notice, and they surface later — in a reconciliation, or in somebody’s reply. It starts whenever something arrives, which means someone has to be watching for it to start at all. As volume grows the work does not get harder, only longer, and the first thing to go is the checking.

Supplier Bank Detail Verification runs that same sequence end to end and returns the result as structured artefacts. What it cannot settle it hands over rather than guesses at, and your correction is kept: it asks “Right call on this request?” after every run, and those answers become the set it is measured against. Nothing that moves money, alters a contract or reaches a customer executes without human approval, and every action is written to an audit log. The gain is in the volume that no longer has to be read, not in removing the judgement.

How it works

Step 1: Checking the request against the record

First of 2. It works from the change request and what is on record and feeds the step after it.

Key Tasks:

  • Running the checks in order: Every rule for purchase to pay is applied to every record, in the same order each run. A record is not skipped because it looks routine.
  • Recording evidence, not verdicts: Each check stores what was expected and what was found, so a failure can be understood without re-running anything.
  • Separating clear from unclear: A check the agent cannot settle is marked unresolved rather than passed, which keeps "checked" meaning checked.

Outcome:

  • All checks pass: The record clears with its evidence attached, available if anyone asks later.
  • A check fails: The record is held with the failing checks named and the rest shown as passed, so a reviewer sees the scope of the problem rather than only that there is one.

Step 2: Writing the verification instruction

Last of 2. It takes what step 1 produced and produces verdict and what to do before anything changes.

Key Tasks:

  • Testing the verification instruction: The rules applied here are the ones that govern the verification instruction, rather than a general validity check that would pass anything well-formed.
  • Failing loudly, not quietly: A rule that cannot be evaluated is reported as unevaluated. A check that silently passes when it could not run is worse than no check.
  • Running the checks in order: Every rule for purchase to pay is applied to every record, in the same order each run. A record is not skipped because it looks routine.

Outcome:

  • Within policy: The item satisfies every rule that governs it and continues without review.
  • Outside policy: The failing rules are named alongside the ones that passed, so a reviewer sees the scope of the problem rather than only that there is one.

Step 3: Your review, and what it changes

The run ends with a person, not with a result being filed.

Key Tasks:

  • Asking a specific question: It asks “Right call on this request?” rather than for a rating. A question about this run is answerable; a score out of five is not.
  • Keeping the correction: What you change is recorded against the case that produced it, so the disagreement is retrievable rather than absorbed.
  • Building the evaluation set: Those cases become what the agent is measured on. It is scored against your judgement rather than against a general benchmark.

Outcome:

  • A measured agent, not an assumed one: The cases Supplier Bank Detail Verification handles well and the cases it does not are both visible, and the second list is the one that decides what changes. Nothing is retrained silently on the back of a single correction.

Why use Supplier Bank Detail Verification?

  • Checks are evidenced, not asserted: Each check records what was expected and what was found. A failure can be understood — and argued with — without re-running anything.
  • Works from the message itself: The body and its attachments are the input, so a request does not have to be transcribed into a form before anything can happen to it.
  • Starts from the message itself: A matching message in the connected inbox is the trigger, so nothing sits in a queue waiting to be noticed. Messages that do not match are left alone rather than processed and discarded.
  • Corrected by the people using it: After each run it asks “Right call on this request?”. Those answers become the evaluation set, which means it is measured against your judgement rather than ours.
  • Reads and reports, does not act: It returns a result for review rather than writing changes back on its own. Anything that moves money, alters a contract or reaches a customer needs human approval first.

Oversight

Runs under scoped, least-privilege credentials with every action written to an audit log. Anything that moves money, alters a contract or reaches a customer requires human approval before it executes.
