Patent attributes
A fraud detection system for detecting fraudulent acts related to payment discounts from digital transactional data is disclosed. In some embodiments, the fraud detection system is programmed or configured with data structures and/or database records that are arranged to detect an occurrence of a triggering event, such as receiving an early payment discount by a buyer account from a supplier account. The fraud detection system is programmed to analyze how a first amount charged for certain items by the supplier account to the buyer account before the triggering event has changed to a second amount after the triggering event from digital documents related to procurement transactions. The certain items may include items for sale or for other miscellaneous items. The digital documents may include catalogs, purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or invoices. The fraud detection system is programmed to further detect any potential fraud committed by the supplier account based on the analysis result and assist the buyer account with handling any potential fraud.
