The UK/AU term for vendor statement reconciliation (US usage) — the same process of matching a supplier's statement against your AP subledger, with the same regional-terminology pattern as Aged Creditors vs Aged Payables.
Supplier statement reconciliation and vendor statement reconciliation describe the same process — matching a supplier's (or vendor's) statement of account against your accounts payable ledger and explaining every leftover.
"Supplier" is the more common term in UK and Australian accounting usage; "vendor" is more common in US usage. Same control, different regional name — the same pattern shows up with Aged Creditors (UK/AU) vs Aged Payables (US), and PLCA (Purchase Ledger Control Account, UK/AU) vs the AP subledger (US).
Knowing both terms matters for search, for job postings, and for reading ERP documentation written for a different region than the one you trained in.
