Hello

 

In IFS Cloud, does the PO, GRN and invoice match for Services has to be accurate, or can it be within logical constraints (“Invoice is equal or less than remaining GRN”)?

 

Is the following example of three way matching for Services (not Goods) possible in IFS?

 

  • Issue PO

On 1 Feb 2026, a PO for 100 units of Service is issued.

  • Goods Receipt (GRN)

By 3 March 2026, the company receives 70 units of Service.

A GRN is created for 70 units, referencing the PO.

This GRN is stored in the system and awaits invoice(s) for matching.

  • Invoice 1 Arrives (40 units)

On 14 April 2026, the supplier sends an invoice for 40 units of Service.

The system performs three-way matching:

PO: 100 units.

GRN: 70 units received.

Invoice: 40 units billed.

Match is successful — invoice is approved for payment.

  • Invoice 2 Arrives (30 units)

On 20 June 2026, the supplier sends another invoice for 30 units of Service.

The system checks:

Remaining GRN balance: 70 units received − 40 units invoiced = 30 units available.

Invoice: 30 units billed.

Match is successful — invoice is approved for payment.

 

Thanks
