A changed bank detail is cheap to verify and expensive to reverse, and the verification has no slot until you budget it.
Turn a batch of new vendors into a check count, an approval count, and the hours the verification takes.
Small business owners and finance staff who onboard vendors and approve their payment details.
Use the source document or official route that applies to your situation. This guide does not contact another person or verify external information.
List every vendor added this period, including ones that only changed a bank detail.
Name the checks you run: the known phone number, the domain, and the contract contact.
Time one full verification once and use that figure for the batch.
Enter how many people must sign off. Verification time is separate from approval time.
Put the total in the calendar before the first payment run, not after it.
Four new vendors at three checks each and ten minutes a check, with two approvers, is 12 checks, 8 approvals, and 120 minutes.
Use your own source and details. The example is not a record about a real person or organization.
The same onboarding rules at two batch sizes. Both are examples.
Both cases are examples, not records about a real person. The bars show the same numbers the free App computes.
