Automated MicroBiz Receiving Discrepancy Alerts

Every night, WebRun opens MicroBiz to pull that day's receiving against each purchase order, compares the received quantity and cost to the matching vendor bill in QuickBooks, flags any line that does not match, and emails your purchasing manager a discrepancy list before the bill is approved for payment.

In short

How do I catch vendor receiving discrepancies before I pay the bill?

WebRun compares what MicroBiz shows as received each night against the matching vendor bill in QuickBooks, checking quantity and cost line by line. It flags any mismatch and emails your purchasing manager a discrepancy list showing ordered, received, and billed figures side by side, so a short shipment or an overcharge gets caught before the bill is paid.

  • Short shipments and overcharges get caught before a bill is paid
  • Every receiving line is checked, not just the largest purchase orders
  • Purchasing managers get a side by side figure comparison every night

Questions, answered

Will WebRun pay or dispute the vendor bill itself?

No. It only compares MicroBiz receiving to the QuickBooks vendor bill and emails you a discrepancy list. Paying, disputing, or adjusting the bill is still up to your purchasing manager.

What counts as a discrepancy?

Any line where the quantity or cost billed by the vendor differs from what MicroBiz shows as actually received, beyond a small rounding amount you can adjust.

Does it check every purchase order or just large ones?

It checks every purchase order received that day, regardless of size, so a small but repeated overcharge gets caught just as fast as one big mismatch.

Put this on autopilot.
