A supplier's invoice arrives. Before approving it, compare what you ordered, what arrived, and what you're being charged.
For example, your purchase order says one hundred units, but the invoice lists one hundred ten. That difference needs an explanation.
Check the delivered quantity, any approved changes, unit price, and freight. The difference could be an error or a genuine change.
Ask the supplier, document the answer, and review before paying. Clear purchasing records make that conversation easier.
