Monthly anomaly detection and reporting from SAP FI to every business unit head: what moved, why it moved and which three items deserve a conversation, delivered by the 5th.
Cost centre reports arrive as long tables weeks after month-end, with no view on what matters.
Duplicate vendors, split purchases and unusual postings are buried in thousands of lines.
Even when a variance is spotted, there is no owner, no follow-up and no record of the outcome.
Every BU question returns to a small FP&A team for a manual deep dive.
The same monthly rhythm across every business unit, delivered by the 5th.
Maps every posting to category, vendor and cost centre, and suggests recoding for miscoded lines with the reason shown.
Finds unusual amounts, frequencies, vendors and timing against history and peer units, ranked by value and risk.
A one-page brief for each BU head with suggested questions, and a follow-up item per anomaly until it is closed.
Every agent follows the same five steps, so behaviour is predictable and every step leaves evidence.
General ledger postings from SAP FI, vendor master, cost centre hierarchy, budgets and purchase orders.
Classifies spend, compares it to budget, history and peer units, and scores each variance for materiality.
Selects at least three named anomalies per business unit, ranked by value and risk.
Delivers the BU brief by the 5th, opens a follow-up item per anomaly and answers BU questions in context.
Learns from which anomalies were confirmed or dismissed and tunes the detection thresholds.
No single agent both proposes and approves. Each one has a narrow job, its own tools and its own permissions.
Maps every posting to category, vendor and cost centre, fixing miscoding with explained suggestions.
Finds unusual amounts, frequencies, vendors and timing against history and peer units.
Writes a one-page insight for each BU head with named anomalies and suggested questions.
Tracks the action each BU head takes and reports adoption back to the CFO.
Speed comes from autonomy. Trust comes from the three things around it. This is how each is designed into Department Spend Insight.
Detection, ranking and reporting run on a fixed calendar without prompting; journals and vendor actions are outside the agent’s band.
Materiality thresholds, category taxonomy and report recipients are approved by the CFO and versioned.
Each anomaly links to the exact postings, the comparison baseline and the reason it was ranked.
Finance sets thresholds per entity and category, and every dismissal is recorded with a reason.
Bands are agreed with the business before go-live and widened only on evidence from the pilot.
| Action | Autonomy | Accountable owner |
|---|---|---|
| Classify spend and suggest recoding | Recommends | Financial controller |
| Detect and rank anomalies | Acts autonomously | FP&A lead |
| Deliver the monthly BU brief | Acts autonomously | FP&A lead |

| Block a vendor or payment | Assists | CFO |
Success metrics are agreed before build and signed off with the client after the pilot.
| Metric | Target | How we measure |
|---|---|---|
| On-time delivery | By the 5th | Brief timestamp vs working-day calendar |
| Named anomalies per BU | ≥ 3 | Count in each monthly brief |
| BU head adoption | ≥ 80% | Briefs with a recorded action |
| Confirmed savings | Tracked | Value of anomalies confirmed and corrected |
