Tail Spend
Tail Spend is the name for the large number of small value transactions that are processed, often through non-preferred suppliers. It is common for the number of transactions to total around 80% and 20% of the monetary value. It is important that control is gained across Tail Spend to aim to reduce the high administration burden of such a high number of transactions being processed.
