The customer should write a letter or an email to the supplier seeking refund of the excess amount.

If the customer has a long term business relationship with the supplier with several ongoing transactions, then the customer can intimate the details of the error and can seek confirmation as to whether the excess amount is duly noted in the books of account of the supplier or not.

Here is an example of such a letter to the supplier requesting a refund.
