Detect duplicate payments
Your finance team knows duplicate payments happen - the same invoice paid twice, slightly different reference numbers, weeks apart. The problem is finding them across thousands of transactions in multiple entities.
Gardenia's duplicate payment detection scans your payment data automatically and flags potential duplicates in minutes. You see exactly how much cash is tied up, compare invoice details side-by-side, and decide which ones to pursue with suppliers.
What you can do:
- See total exposure - Know how much cash is tied up in potential duplicates across all entities
- Prioritize by value - Sort duplicates by invoice amount to focus on the biggest recoveries first
- Compare details side-by-side - View both invoices together: payment date, supplier ID, amount, description, document ID
- Spot the patterns - Same supplier, same amount, same date, minor description differences - the telltale signs of duplicates
- Build your recovery list - Flag confirmed duplicates to follow up with suppliers and recover cash
Why it matters:
Most companies only find duplicate payments through manual review or supplier outreach - if they find them at all. By the time you discover them, months have passed and recovery gets harder. Gardenia catches them as they happen, so you can act while the trail is fresh.
