What You Need to Know
You might not use this system daily, but here's what to do if asked to check invoices.

Daily Task: Check if Invoices Match
Step 1: Open Dashboard
Log in to the system
Look at the main screen
Step 2: Look for Red Flags
⚠️ "Discrepancies Detected" = Courier overcharged us
🚫 "Unmatched Lines" = We forgot to bill a customer
Step 3: Tell Your Manager
If you see:
More than 5 discrepancies
Large unmatched amounts (over £100)
Anything marked "Ignored"
→ Alert your manager immediately

Click "Next"
Choose the file (CSV or Excel from courier)
Click "Next"
Important: Change "Destination Zone" to "Postcode"
Click "Submit"
Wait 30 seconds
Click "Refresh"
