Are You Ensuring Proper Documentation for Every Transaction? 📝

One of the most critical areas of financial control is ensuring that every transaction is properly documented. Here’s a common scenario where companies may fall short:

Example:

A company processes expense reimbursements based on verbal claims from employees, without requiring proper documentation, such as receipts or invoices. This lack of documentation increases the risk of fraud or unauthorized reimbursements.

Impact:

When reimbursements are processed without supporting documents, the company may unknowingly approve fraudulent or unauthorized expenses, leading to financial losses and potential compliance issues.

Remediation:

To safeguard your business, it’s essential to require proper documentation for all transactions, including receipts, invoices, and appropriate approvals. This ensures accountability and minimizes the risk of financial mismanagement.
