We have the following PO which we are trying to invoice, with 2 part lines and one charge line.
When we enter a supplier invoice for it, no matching occurs and we are not sure why. I would greatly appreciate any thoughts on what the issue could be or any suggestions on how to resolve.
Hi,
Matching logic follows the setting on the supplier. The supplier set up drives the logic. ,
The logic can be set as PO header, PO Line, or receipt reference.
Matching can then be performed after the goods had been received.
If the goods were received, one of the matching logic options would be attempted.
PO header is often a very good choice in that the value of the invoice is matched against the value of the goods received.
If your supplier is set a PO line, the invoice entry must have detailed data such that the invoice line area has the parts and values (we then match the invoice lines to the PO lines). Unless the invoice is loaded automatically from OCR, EDI, XML type integration, this is a rare option. Most AP départements do not create invoices manually with that data. Nevertheless, if you supplier is set as line level matching and your invoice lines area does not include details such as part number, IFS cannot match that.
The other option is receipt reference where at receiving a packing slip or other reference is entered. That same reference would need to be on the supplier invoice.
Taking a guess, check your supplier to see if matching is set to PO line. Unless your invoice has this data, change to header matching and try the invoice again.
Best regards,
Thomas
