• Manually entering approved invoices into the organization's ERP system, ensuring supplier details, invoice information, GST treatment, account coding, cost centers and other information are accurate.
• Reviewing invoices for appropriate approval, accuracy and supporting documentation prior to processing.

• Identifying and resolving missing invoices, duplicate invoices, outstanding credits, unallocated payments and other supplier account discrepancies identified through the reconciliation process.
• Proactively liaising with suppliers and internal stakeholders to resolve reconciliation issues and ensure supplier accounts remain accurate and current.
• Preparing weekly creditor payment batches and ABA files for management review and payment.
• Ensuring invoices due for payment have been appropriately processed and approved ahead of weekly payment deadlines.
