Staff time saved, Direct Heating & Plumbing

"Previously, we were manually ticking off each statement or performing VLOOKUPs in a spreadsheet to reconcile larger suppliers, which took a lot of valuable time. Now, Open ECX automatically reconciles any matching items to our ledger, and we only need to focus on any discrepancies."

Ryan Davies, Finance Manager, Direct Heating & Plumbing

Questions finance teams ask us

What is supplier statement reconciliation?

It's the process of comparing a supplier's statement against your own purchase ledger to confirm every invoice, payment and credit lines up. We flag anything that doesn't as a discrepancy to resolve.

How often should we reconcile supplier statements?

Monthly is the common baseline, though high-volume suppliers often get reconciled weekly. Automation makes the frequency a setting, not a staffing decision.

Is SOX compliance relevant to a UK business?

Only if you're SEC-registered or a subsidiary of a US-listed parent whose results roll into that parent's accounts. Most UK private companies sit outside SOX's direct scope, though the same control discipline still pays off ahead of an audit or an exit.

Can statement reconciliation be automated end to end?

Matching, flagging and reporting can run automatically. Exceptions still go to a person, which is exactly where the time should go.

What's the difference between statement reconciliation and invoice matching?

Invoice matching checks one invoice against a PO and a goods receipt before payment. Statement reconciliation checks the supplier's whole statement against your ledger after the fact. One stops errors, the other catches what got through.
