Does Apron detect duplicate documents?

Yes, as soon as you upload a document that we detect as a duplicate, we will mark it with a red icon in the 'Status' column. We will indicate that the document is a duplicate if you have already uploaded a similar file or if there is an existing document in the system with similar details (matching Contact, Reference, Issue Date, Total).

In this case, you will be able to delete the document. After deletion, the information about the duplicate will disappear.

In addition, Apron performs a duplicate check when you attempt to publish the document. If we detect that there is an existing bill / credit note with similar details (Contact, Reference, Issue Date, Total) in your accounting software, Apron will display a warning so you can investigate and decide if you want to proceed with the publishing.

Documents identified as duplicates will not be auto-published and will remain in your Inbox pending your review.
