Where review belongs
Our recommendation is to govern automation by authorized policies, materiality, exception escalation, traceability and reversibility. Routine items may proceed within demonstrated controls; unusual transactions and judgment-intensive decisions need appropriate accountable review.
| Task | Potential automation role | Recommended control |
|---|---|---|
| Bank matching | Propose matches | Investigate exceptions and ambiguous matches |
| Transaction coding | Apply approved rules | Escalate unusual classifications |
| Accruals and cutoff | Prepare supporting schedules | Accountable review of assumptions and period allocation |
| Flux commentary | Draft explanations | Check explanations against source activity |
Documented example, L2: Oracle describes predictions trained on prior manual matches, confidence scores and user confirmation or rejection. This supports the existence of a documented review step, not effectiveness in a real close. Oracle Transaction Matching Assistance documentation.
