Detect
The Detect module allows you to manage payee risk. It is intended to act as an enhancement to your current methods of identifying fraudsters in your network. It is not intended to replace your existing methods. By using this module, the information you provide Tipalti about fraudulent payees can be leveraged to provide you with a more robust risk assessment for better security.
The Detect module runs every time a payee changes any of their details in the iFrame/ Supplier Hub. In other words, it tracks payee activity when the payee interacts with the Tipalti system (Tipalti AIArtificial Intelligence helps manage payee security). Activity outside Tipalti cannot be recognized.
General guidelines
The most effective way to use the Detect module is to resolve risk cases on an ongoing basis and not allow the cases to accumulate over time. You need to review risk cases regularly to ensure the most efficient identification of potential fraudsters.
Types of risk checks
When a risk check is performed, relations between payees are checked against the payees' historic records. Tipalti performs the following risk checks:
- Blocked payees - Checks whether a payee is related to other blocked/ suspended payees of the same payer
- Multiple accounts - Checks whether a payee is related to other unblocked/ unsuspended payees of the same payer
When a payee or payment orderA single payment instruction for a payee fails a risk check, a new risk case opens automatically and the system notifies you accordingly.
