Invoice matching allows you to identify which items on the order are covered by the invoice. When all items on the order have been invoiced, the order is closed. Invoice matching generates the costing distribution for the invoice.
You can run invoice matching either as part of the process of entering accounts payable invoices, or as the separate Cost Invoices procedure.
Invoice matching will run if:
You are using Procurement, and
The invoice was entered with a valid PO number, and
The distribution type of the invoice is C (Costed), and
The supplier is set up with invoice matching enabled. (Invoice matching is enabled if the Invoice Match field on the supplier record is checked.)
