- The same cash cannot be allocated twice.
- An invoice cannot post in a closed period.

Bill eligible delivery scope, apply confirmed cash and approve the period close.
Accountant builds the invoice from unbilled title-transferred quantity, checked tax and the frozen currency rate. The posting period must be open.
Finance Manager independently checks the current invoice revision, entity, total and eligible source allocation before approval.
Accountant records actual customer receipt evidence and allocates within both unapplied cash and the open invoice balance.
Accountant checks bank statement matches, supplier payments, journals and close tasks at the cutoff. Uncertain payment outcomes stay open for review.
Finance Manager reviews unresolved close tasks and revaluation before approving the accounting period close. Reopen needs separate authority.
