Identify high-risk transactions using Ai-driven anomaly detection for AP Automation

AP Automation uses AI-driven anomaly detection to identify potentially risky transactions before payment.

Sage Intacct analyzes supplier billing patterns and submission details to flag unusual transaction amounts and unrecognized supplier email addresses. This helps AP teams focus on higher-risk transactions, reduce manual review, and strengthen fraud controls.

Key benefits

• Identify anomalous transactions earlier: Detect unusual amounts and unrecognized supplier email addresses before payment processing.

• Focus review on transactions that need attention: Anomaly indicators help you prioritize potentially risky transactions instead of manually reviewing every transaction.

• Strengthen fraud controls: Block suspicious email addresses and investigate transactions that deviate from expected patterns.

How it works

When transactions are processed through AP Automation or Purchasing, Sage Intacct detects the following issues:

• Unusual transaction amounts

• Unrecognized supplier email addresses

• Multiple anomalies on the same transaction

Anomaly indicators appear in the Automated transactions list so reviewers can investigate potentially risky transactions before posting.

Good to know

The Anomaly column does not appear by default. Add the column to a custom view to display anomaly indicators.

Anomalies are informational and do not prevent transaction posting.
