Duplicate Detection

Learn how duplicates are detected and quickly found for remediation.

Written by Ryan Goetz

Vic.ai will help you to detect duplicate invoices upon ingestion into our system.

To determine if there is a duplicate, the system looks for an exact match on the following fields:

  • Document type (bill or vendor credit)

  • Vendor

  • Invoice number

  • Company* (*Specific to Group of Companies Configuration)


Blocked Actions

If there is a duplicate invoice, the following actions are blocked until remediation:

  • Starting an Approval Process

  • Approving/Rejecting an Invoice

  • Posting

  • Exporting


Finding and Remediating Duplicates

If a duplicate is detected, a red square icon flags it on the Status column. Double-clicking the duplicate icon will open a small menu explaining the error. Click View Duplicates in order to open up a new Vic.ai browser tab that is prefiltered for the duplicates, allowing for deletion, merging, or other corrective action.
