Recover what was paid twice.
Totals from actual invoices, not estimates.
Duplicate payments hide behind slightly different invoice numbers, dates and entry paths. SpendCraft surfaces possible duplicate groups with the evidence behind each one, your team confirms what is real, and the Recoveries Space tracks money owed back.
What Usually Happens
Where it goes wrong today.
Simple checks flag the wrong things
Recurring inventory buys and installment billing look like duplicates. A long list of false alarms gets ignored.
Real duplicates look different
An extra character in the invoice number, a different date, the same invoice paid against a PO and again without one.
Recoveries are hard to prove
Finance wants to see the invoices behind a recovery figure, not an estimate.
How SpendCraft Works It
From the data to a decision you own.
Step 1: Run it on your AP data
The Duplicate Invoice Caddie works on invoices from your ERP or AP system, with invoice documents where you have them.
Step 2: Review possible duplicate groups
Each group shows which fields match, which differ, and the invoices behind it. Missing data shows as not on file.
Step 3: Confirm what is real
Your AP team confirms each group. Only confirmed duplicates count.
Step 4: Track the money owed back
Confirmed totals are sums of actual invoice amounts. The Recoveries Space keeps them alongside credits and freight disputes.

Questions
Before you start.
Is the recovery total an estimate?
No. Recovery totals are sums of actual invoice amounts in the findings.
Does SpendCraft pay or reverse invoices?
No. SpendCraft has no payments features. It surfaces possible duplicates and tracks what your team confirms and recovers.
What about invoices with poor ERP detail?
Invoice Augmentation reads invoice PDFs, scans and supplier attachments to recover details the ERP dropped or truncated.
