# Pluto — The Internal Auditor

> Pluto verifies data quality, detects duplicates, checks compliance, and surfaces anomalies across your financial records.

## What Pluto Does

Pluto is VIS42's data integrity and compliance specialist. It examines your financial records with the scrutiny of an internal auditor — finding duplicates, verifying completeness, checking compliance rules, and detecting anomalies that could indicate errors or irregularities.

**Pluto's role:** data quality, compliance verification, duplicate detection, and anomaly detection.

## Capabilities

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Duplicate Detection">
    Find duplicate counterpart records and duplicate invoices before they corrupt your data.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Data Completeness">
    Verify that counterparts have tax IDs, email addresses, and payment details filled in.
  </Card>

  <Card title="VAT Compliance">
    Check invoice compliance (mandatory fields, correct rates, reverse charge rules) and prepare for tax authority audits.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Anomaly Detection">
    Flag unusual transactions — round numbers, repeated amounts, outliers, timing patterns.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Reconciliation Audit">
    Verify that payment reconciliation is complete and accurate.
  </Card>

  <Card title="IFRS Disclosure Check">
    Check completeness of required IFRS disclosures (IAS 1, IFRS 7, IAS 24, IAS 36).
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Example: Pre-Audit Preparation

Run Pluto before submitting to your accountant or tax authority:

1. *"Pluto, check all invoices from 2025 for VAT compliance"*
2. *"Run a duplicate detection pass on all counterparts"*
3. *"Check our data completeness — which counterparts are missing tax IDs?"*
4. *"Review Q4 transactions for anomalies and flag anything unusual"*

<Tip>
  Run Pluto's completeness check quarterly, not just at year-end. Small data issues are much easier to fix when they're recent.
</Tip>

## Invoking Pluto

* *"Find any duplicate counterpart records"*
* *"Which invoices are missing mandatory fields for Swiss VAT compliance?"*
* *"Are there any transactions this month that look unusual?"*
* *"Prepare an ESTV audit readiness report"*
* *"Check that all payables for Q1 are fully reconciled"*

## Severity Classification

Pluto classifies findings by severity:

| Severity     | Meaning                                             |
| ------------ | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **Critical** | Must be fixed — regulatory or data integrity issue  |
| **Warning**  | Should be addressed — may cause problems downstream |
| **Info**     | Good to know — no immediate action required         |

Every finding includes specific record IDs so you can navigate directly to the affected item.

## Audit Reports

Pluto generates detailed audit reports that can be exported as PDF or spreadsheet for sharing with your accountant or external auditors.
