What you will learn
Three-way matching prevents incorrect, duplicate, and fraudulent payments by checking invoices against purchase orders and receiving records.
Reconciliation uses a systematic method; matching finds issues, but identifying timing, errors, fees, or fraud guides correct resolution.
Accurate records rely on strong control processes and attention to detail; small discrepancies may signal bigger problems if not caught early.
Tools like QuickBooks make reconciliation faster, but technology supports rather than replaces the judgment needed to resolve complex variances.
