What is Anomaly Detection?

What does 'Anomaly Detection' mean?

Transactions and balances are compared against historical patterns and expected ranges so that entries which look out of place are flagged for review. In an accounting context this surfaces duplicate payments, unusual vendors, amounts far outside the norm for an account, or postings made at odd times, giving finance teams a shortlist to investigate instead of sampling at random.
