Review & duplicates · GUIDE

What does “possible duplicate” mean?

A signal to compare the documents—not a reason to delete one blindly.

THE IMPORTANT BIT

The same amount does not always mean the same invoice. Compare the source and existing record.

  1. 1

    Compare both documents

    Check the supplier, invoice reference, date, and total. Look at the source documents, not just their filenames.

  2. 2

    Check the existing accounting record

    Confirm the business and transaction involved. Establish whether the original invoice has already been processed.

  3. 3

    Hold anything uncertain

    Resolve the warning before approving another entry. Ask support with the two document references when you cannot establish what happened.

Do not delete or recreate a transaction simply to remove a warning.
