Why does the IBAN differ for two expenses with the same supplier?

Prev Next

IBAN discrepancies usually result from differences in where Payhawk pulls the account information, namely:

  • For supplier-related expenses, Payhawk retrieves the IBAN from the supplier profile in Payhawk.  

  • For reimbursements, Payhawk retrieves the IBAN from the user profile. If this information is outdated, discrepancies can occur.

To resolve this issue, try the following approaches:

  • Update outdated reimbursement data

    • Employees have to ensure their profile contains the correct and current IBAN.

    • Payhawk administrators can manually update outdated IBANs in user profiles to reflect the correct account information.

  • Review open transactions:

    • Check reimbursements linked to previously used or incorrect IBANs.  

    • Update the details where needed to ensure consistency and avoid failed transactions.
