Manually Validate a Non-Order Invoice
see IRIS Financials V7 instructions
When a Non-order invoice is uploaded to IRIS Invoice Matcher it may require manual verification before it is processed into PS Accounting.
This typically occurs if the supplier invoice format is not recognised, there is a discrepancy with the invoice, or the invoice has been manually uploaded to IRIS Invoice Matcher.
IRIS Invoice Matcher learns the format of new supplier invoices. A new style of supplier invoice typically needs to be processed 3 or 4 times for IRIS Invoice Matcher to learn the format.
If IRIS Invoice Matcher is unable to validate the invoice, an email is sent to the applicable finance user requesting that they review the invoice.
The email contains the Track ID number, which can be referenced in IRIS Invoice Matcher.
All sections must be verified before the invoice can be processed through to PS Accounting.
