Transaction Validation Module (TVM)

Custom Business Rules to Make B2B Work Your Way

The Transaction Validation Module (TVM) acts as an intelligent control layer between document receipt and transaction processing, ensuring inbound transactions comply with your business rules before reaching downstream systems.

TVM validates, enriches, and manages transactions in real time, helping organizations improve data quality, reduce manual effort, and prevent costly processing errors.

When exceptions are identified, TVM can:

  • Automatically correct data using predefined rules
  • Create workflow tasks for remediation
  • Notify responsible teams
  • Hold transactions pending resolution
  • Automatically reprocess corrected transactions

The result is faster processing, fewer disputes, and greater operational control.

How TVM Helps

When customer information does not align with master records, TVM can:
