It helps businesses identify any inconsistencies between their records and the statements provided by vendors. These discrepancies may arise due to errors in invoicing, late payments, or other unforeseen issues. By conducting regular vendor reconciliations, organizations can pinpoint and rectify these discrepancies promptly, fostering transparent financial transactions.
