What comes back to your team

Work you can see and review.

Invoice document pack

A working record with source references, current status, and the person responsible for the next step.

Missing-reference queue

A focused view of missing inputs, unanswered questions, and items that need your decision.

Duplicate-check notes

A dated handoff that distinguishes completed work from pending review and unresolved exceptions.

Put the role into practice

Prepare

Give the role a reliable starting point.

Provide finance folders, naming rules, and the person who resolves invoice discrepancies.

An example working day

A practical handoff

An invoice arrives without a purchase reference. The assistant requests the missing detail and keeps it separate from ready-to-review records.

Illustrative workflow, not a client case study.
Review

Check the work before closing the loop.

Compare supplier identity, invoice numbers, dates, and supporting delivery records.

Your systems, your permissions

Fit the role to your environment.

Tool familiarity is considered when defining the role. Your team approves every platform, access level, and source of truth.

Inside the responsibility

What invoice document support looks like in practice.

Prepare supplier invoice records and supporting documents for your bookkeeper’s review. The scope below connects each recurring responsibility to its source information and a checkable working record. Your team confirms the exact steps, templates, and approval limits before work starts.

Match invoices to order references

Begin with the latest request and its approved source record. Check that the necessary information is present, identify the owner, and clarify conflicting details before making an update.

Working output: Invoice document pack. Include the source reference, current status, and next owner when an item remains open.

Check document completeness

Use the agreed template or checklist to carry out this task. Record what was checked and the date of the action so another team member can understand the current position.

Working output: Missing-reference queue. Include the source reference, current status, and next owner when an item remains open.

Flag apparent duplicates

Keep this work connected to the wider queue. Note dependencies and unanswered questions, and use the agreed escalation route when the next step requires a decision.

Working output: Duplicate-check notes. Include the source reference, current status, and next owner when an item remains open.

Organize finance handoffs

Complete the task only when its agreed checks have passed. If an input is missing or an approval is pending, keep that status visible rather than treating the item as finished.

A handoff you can act on

Keep ready work separate from unresolved work.

An invoice arrives without a purchase reference. The assistant requests the missing detail and keeps it separate from ready-to-review records.

Ready for review

The agreed task is complete and the supporting information is available in your approved system. Attach or link the relevant record and identify any final reviewer before closing the item.

Review against: Compare supplier identity, invoice numbers, dates, and supporting delivery records.

Waiting on an input

Name the missing information, where it was requested, and who is expected to supply it. Keep a follow-up date visible. An unanswered request should not disappear into a completed-work total.

Starting requirements: Provide finance folders, naming rules, and the person who resolves invoice discrepancies.

Needs your decision

Summarize the exception and the information already checked. Ask a specific question and route it to the authorized person. Keep the original source intact while the decision is pending.

Approval boundary: Accounting judgments, tax treatment, payment approval, and bank changes stay with authorized staff.

Set the role up well

Agree what good work means before the first handoff.

Access and examples

Provide individual, approved access to the systems used for this responsibility. Share a completed example, an incomplete example, the relevant template, and a named reviewer. Sensitive working records belong in those systems, not in a public inquiry form.

Possible working environments include QuickBooks, Xero, SharePoint, Google Drive. Tool access and familiarity are confirmed as part of the role brief.

Review and workload measures

Agree which measures are useful for this queue: completed items, items awaiting an input, age of unresolved work, and corrections requested by the reviewer. Review these together with actual examples; volume alone does not establish that work is accurate.

Set response expectations from your operating needs. Coverage, turnaround targets, and the amount of work assigned are agreed separately rather than assumed from the service name.
