CONTEXT

When this template fits

Who it is for

For companies from roughly fifty incoming invoices a month. Below that it works by word of mouth, above it discounts are lost and reminders arrive for invoices long since paid.

Where it typically stalls

At the factual check. It sits with the department, which treats it as a side task, and that is exactly where the invoice stalls. The template sets a deadline and a path for when it passes.

What it connects to

Upstream is the purchase requisition with the order the invoice is matched against. Downstream is the payment run.

Relation to standards

Four-eyes separation between checking and releasing is the standard audit point. The template splits both roles.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

A single process says little about where it sits in the company. These maps show it among its neighbours.
