Invoices reviewed
A summary of the documents included in the analysis.
The report
One report. Less guesswork.
The report is designed to reduce guesswork by surfacing the details that can be easy to miss across scattered consumables invoices.
Suppliers found
A clearer view of how many suppliers appear across the invoice set.
Delivery charges
Delivery fees pulled into one place so they can be reviewed as a total.
Items to review
Practical points such as unusual line items, repeated products, similar names or price movement.
Advanced metrics
Metrics that go beyond the invoice total.
Where enough invoice history is available, DBX ONE can compare periods, calculate unit costs and estimate future ordering needs.
Cost per unit
Shows the effective price per box, roll, pack or item where quantities are available.
Example: couch roll — £3.42 per roll
Month-on-month change
Compares this month with the previous month to show what has increased or decreased.
Example: disinfectant wipes — +14%
Consumption run-rate
Turns invoice quantities into a rough usage rate for repeat consumables.
Example: nitrile gloves — 11.3 boxes/week
Next-order estimate
Uses recent invoice history to estimate what may need ordering next month.
Example: predicted glove need — 45 boxes
Delivery-cost percentage
Shows delivery charges as a share of total spend, making hidden delivery costs easier to see.
Example: delivery burden — 11.6%
Supplier overlap
Flags when similar items are being bought from multiple suppliers.
Example: similar consumables across 3 suppliers
Price increase detection
Flags recurring products that appear to cost more than they did in the previous invoice period.
Example: disinfectant wipes — +14%
Suggested optimisations
Practical review opportunities.
The report can highlight where a team may want to review supplier choices, delivery charges or ordering patterns.
Consolidate similar orders
Example: if one supplier provides both gloves and wipes, review whether both could be ordered together to avoid paying two delivery charges.
Review high delivery fees
Example: delivery fees of £18.00 and £20.00 are flagged as worth checking.
Check like-for-like products
Example: similar glove descriptions may need pack size, material and quantity checked before comparing unit cost.
Estimate future orders
Example: if recent usage suggests 45 glove boxes may be needed next month, the practice can plan the order earlier.
Review price increases
Example: disinfectant wipes appear 14% higher than last month and are flagged for review.
What makes it valuable
From invoice data to practical review points.
Surface hidden costs
Example: seven delivery charges add up to £86.00 in the example month.
Flag unusual line items
Example: couch roll appears at £57.93 and is marked for review.
Make admin easier
Example: 34 scattered invoices become one structured overview.
Turn invoices into action points
Example: review similar product names, repeated purchases and delivery fees over £15.
