I need to confirm that an ABN is valid before I approve a new customer or supplier.

This feature enables you to validate an Australian Business Number (ABN) before approving a new customer or supplier. It helps reduce onboarding risk by confirming business identity details early in the approval process.

This feature supports validating an ABN during the onboarding and approval of new customers or suppliers. Before approval is completed, you can confirm that the provided ABN is valid to help ensure the business is legitimate. The validation step reduces the risk of approving incorrect, inactive, or mistyped ABNs that can cause downstream issues. It also helps maintain cleaner master data by verifying key identification information at the point of entry. This is useful for accounts payable onboarding to avoid paying the wrong entity and for accounts receivable onboarding to ensure correct customer records. The feature fits naturally into an approval workflow by acting as a pre-check prior to final approval. By confirming ABN validity upfront, teams can reduce rework, prevent exceptions, and improve confidence in onboarding decisions. This supports better compliance and audit readiness by demonstrating that basic business identifiers are checked. Overall, it streamlines onboarding while improving data accuracy and operational control.
