What it does

Instead of reacting to one invoice at a time, this workflow does a portfolio-wide nightly reconciliation. It pulls every subscription invoice booked in the last billing cycle from your warehouse, joins it to the negotiated rate card, and ranks vendors by total dollar drift. The result is a single digest showing where you're now paying more than you agreed to.

When to use it

Use this when subscription spend is spread across many vendors and you want a standing daily control rather than ad hoc checks. It suits finance ops teams who review variances each morning and need a prioritized, dollar-weighted list.

How it works

  1. 1A nightly schedule fires the run after invoices have synced to the warehouse.
  2. 2A warehouse query pulls the latest invoiced amounts per active subscription.
  3. 3A second query loads the negotiated baseline rate for each vendor.
  4. 4A logic step computes per-vendor drift and filters out anything within tolerance.
  5. 5Remaining overages are ranked by total dollar impact.
  6. 6The ranked digest is delivered to the finance Microsoft Teams channel.
