Self-Contained Invoice Math Verification & Discrepancy Routing
Loading workflow…
Workflow Description
An automated, self-contained pipeline that audits invoice line items, tax computations, and mandatory fields against recorded totals within a 0.01 tolerance threshold, routing verified invoices to automated processing and defective ones to prioritized human review.
How it works
- 1.Receive or mock invoice records containing line items, subtotals, tax figures, and metadata.
- 2.Execute line-by-line arithmetic and mandatory field validation inside a robust JavaScript Code node.
- 3.Branch the records using an If node into approved or human investigation pathways.
- 4.Merge streams and compile a single deterministic audit summary report.
Use cases
- Auditing OCR and AI invoice extraction outputs prior to general ledger posting.
- Catching subtle rounding variances and discrepancies in vendor billing submissions.
- Isolating non-compliant invoices missing mandatory Purchase Order (PO) references.
Requirements
- n8n environment version 2.42.6 or higher.
- No third-party credentials required; runs completely offline.
Setup and testing in n8n
- Import the workflow into n8n and click Manual Demo Trigger.
- Inspect Audit Math & Fields to confirm calculation checks across lines and totals.
- Verify that INV-2024-001 passes to Route Approved while INV-2024-002 is flagged to Route Review.
- Check Compile Final Report to ensure a single structured JSON summary is output matching expected criteria.
Service Value
Ready-made workflow template for automation delivery and service execution.
