Purchase Pricing & Contract Audit

Check supplier charges against the purchasing terms the business agreed. This application is designed to investigate differences between order prices, contractual arrangements and invoice charges, then organise approvals or recovery claims arising from the review.

Best suited to

Purchasing finance teams monitoring supplier price application.

What you can manage

• Maintain agreed supplier pricing as the review reference.
• Compare purchase order prices with the relevant agreement.
• Identify and explain price differences in the purchase records.
• Record approval where a commercial exception is accepted.
• Prepare recovery claims for differences the business challenges.

A practical workflow

Select the applicable agreement and compare the transaction pricing. Review exceptions with the purchasing team, document accepted deviations and retain supporting calculations for any amount requested back from the supplier.

Why this workflow matters

A supplier invoice is only one part of the purchasing evidence. Comparing the charge with the relevant order, agreement or acceptance record gives the reviewer a clearer basis for deciding what is supported. Exceptions can then be discussed with purchasing or the supplier using the specific transaction details.

Working with your records

Review the supplier agreement and supporting transaction records before accepting a payable or adjustment. Confirm the relevant dates, amounts and approval decision as part of that review. Any bank payment, refund or supplier settlement is executed separately through the business's authorised payment arrangements, rather than by this recordkeeping workflow.
