# Get started

> A practical path from an empty workspace to your first reviewed finding.

Use this checklist to give Watchdog enough information to perform a useful invoice review.

## 1. Bring in invoices

Choose the ingestion method that fits your workflow:

* Connect an accounting system for repeatable synchronization.
* Upload PDF or supported XML invoices in Watchdog.
* Use the public API for a server-to-server workflow.

See [Bring in invoices](/guides/invoices) or [connect an accounting system](/guides/integrations).

## 2. Add commercial terms

Create an agreement for the supplier and add the documents that define the relationship. Include contracts, appendices, and price lists that affect what should be charged.

See [Agreements and pricing](/guides/agreements-and-pricing).

## 3. Confirm the invoice-to-agreement match

Watchdog proposes relevant agreements for each invoice. Confirm the correct match when a decision is required. A confirmed match tells Watchdog which terms to evaluate.

## 4. Review findings

Open **Alerts** to see potential discrepancies. Read the explanation, compare it with the cited invoice and agreement evidence, and decide whether the finding is valid.

See [Review findings](/guides/review-findings).

## 5. Follow up

Dismiss findings that do not require action. Add valid findings to a claim when you are ready to contact the supplier.

<Tip>
  Start with one supplier and a small set of recent invoices. Confirm that the agreement and pricing data produce the expected checks before expanding the scope.
