Invoice Shield
Your AI-Powered Protection from Invoice Fraud
Every day large organisations receive thousands of invoices via email, portals and other channels. As fraudsters become more adepts at documents, companies struggle to spot the fakes. For many, the volume of invoices across multiple platforms means that finance teams can struggle to verify the legitimacy of each and every one.
Invoice Shield was created by our SAP specialists to help Invenio customers that want to take a stand against fake invoices. It uses AI to screen invoices submitted and assess them against multiple backend validation points to detect anomalies in invoice data. If it spots something that's not quite right, it syphons off the questionable invoice ready for review, without delaying those legitimate invoices, helping you steer away from lost profits or potential vendor relationship damage.

However, for our customers that have the right set up, we offer Invoice Shield free* of any licensing charge, going above and beyond to deliver solutions, not just best practice.
Why pay for protection when you could have it built in? Invoice Shield isn’t just best practice - it’s peace of mind
How it works
4 Stages of Defence Against Invoice Fraud
Invoice Shield protects you from fraudulent invoices to safeguard your business and your reputation.

Solve Real-World Challenges with Invoice Shield
Syphon off fake vendor invoices
It's all too easy for fraudsters to create convincing emails requesting payment to alternative bank accounts for services you may have received. According to the FBI, Business Email Compromise attacks cost organisations over $2.77bn last year.

Spot Invoice Tampering
Around 50% of managers believe that not having an automated way of matching invoices against orders, contracts, and vendor information increases a business's susceptibility to fraud.

Duplicate Invoices
No business is entirely above making a mistake - some may even submit an invoice more than once intentionally.
Invoice Shield spots duplicates and cuts out unnecessary overpayments and accounting inconsistencies, leaving more money in your bottom line.
Lack of Control
Weak internal controls can lead to invoices approved without verification. Whether it's insider fraud, or simply contrasting priorities, it could all lead to unbudgeted spending.
With Invoice Shield you can set and enforce approval hierarchies and generate audit trails for tighter control of your invoices.
Invoice Audit Control
Clients denying receiving invoices, delaying payment beyond deadlines, and claiming errors can all impact your profitability and negatively affect Days Sales Outstanding (DSOs).
Invoice Shield gives you proof of receipt, processing logs and even email receipts, as your workflows dictate, so you can have complete confidence and control over your side of the invoice creation and delivery process.
