Job Description:

Key Responsibilities

1. Daily Queue Management & Intake

Review new invoices daily via the SAP and Telecom Expense Management System [TEMS] queues, prioritizing actions based on payment due dates and critical supplier status.

Monitor email and the ticketing system for disconnection notices, past-due notifications, and rejected invoices, ensuring tickets are updated at least once weekly.

Identify and action invoices requiring immediate attention, such as those associated with disconnection notices, by escalating to Vendor Managers immediately.

2. Invoice Validation (SAP)

Perform a rigorous "health check" on invoice details, ensuring the invoice number, vendor name, currency, bank account and PO number match internal records.

Tax Compliance: Ensure taxes and fees (e.g., GST, PST, USF fees) are separated correctly from PO line items and calculate tax vs. surcharges using internal guidelines.

3. Contract Compliance & Line Item Matching (TEMS)

Validate invoice line items against contract deliverables in the TEMS

Ensure the billing start date aligns with the service acceptance date; confirm that services are not being billed past their termination date.

Update TEMS data by adding billing Circuit IDs (CIDs) and other unique identifiers from the invoice to the corresponding deliverables.

Usage Validation: Calculate and validate variable usage charges (e.g., Colocation Power, IP Transit) against rate tables and minimum commit thresholds.

4. Issue Resolution

Dispute Management: Log discrepancies for Special Process vendors into designated issue trackers for Vendor Managers to resolve.

Ticketing: Initiate tickets for missing invoices, payment failures, funding requests, or master data updates (e.g., vendor name changes).

Conduct "Final PO Health Checks" to identify POs trending to run out of funds or those containing unapplied credit notes.

Manage the processing of Credit Notes and True-Up invoices, ensuring exchange rates and original invoice references are documented correctly before delegation.
