What it does

Adds a vendor-verification gate at invoice intake. Every inbound invoice's sender domain and supplier name are checked against the approved-vendor master in Postgres. Known suppliers flow to normal approval; unknown ones are quarantined and turned into a ClickUp onboarding task so procurement vets the vendor before any money moves.

When to use it

Use it when you must confirm a supplier is approved and not fraudulent before paying them, and new or spoofed vendors currently slip straight into the approval queue. It blocks payment-fraud and rogue-spend at the front door.

How it works

  1. 1A new invoice email in Outlook triggers the run.
  2. 2The sender domain and supplier name are extracted from the message.
  3. 3Postgres is queried against the approved-vendor master for a match.
  4. 4A branch splits known suppliers from unrecognized ones.
  5. 5Known suppliers get a standard ClickUp approval task.
  6. 6Unknown suppliers get a ClickUp vendor-onboarding task in a Hold list, with the invoice attached and payment blocked until they are approved.
