Accept receipt and match invoice

Use actual accepted quantities as the basis for an eligible invoice match and reviewed downstream handoff.

Step by step

  1. Identify the purchased line Receiving Officer

    Receiving Officer selects the actual request and line, checking the requested quantity and its agreed basis against the physical acceptance evidence.

    • Establish actual Parent and requested quantity basis
    • Updates Purchase requests, Purchase lines, Record attachments
  2. Accept receipt Receiving Officer

    Receiving Officer records the actual accepted quantity and accepted date through the guarded action. Over-receipt is refused unless an authorized change supports the additional scope.

    • Record accepted quantity and accepted at within authorized scope
    • Updates Purchase lines, Operation receipts
  3. Match invoice Finance Officer

    Finance Officer identifies the supplier invoice reference and matches it to unused accepted scope. Requested but unaccepted quantity cannot supply that eligibility.

    • Match invoice reference to unused accepted scope
    • Updates Purchase lines, Purchase requests, Operation receipts
  4. Follow the reviewed handoff Finance Officer

    Finance Officer follows only the reviewed eligible amount into the configured downstream process. The operation result needs its evidence; no payment or inventory receipt is fabricated locally.

    • Retain the eligible amount's real downstream effect evidence
    • Updates Operation receipts, Review decisions, Purchase requests

Where it usually breaks

And how to keep it from happening.

  • Full request treated as received. A partial acceptance does not establish that the remaining quantity is eligible for invoicing.
  • Same scope matched twice. A repeated invoice reference or command must not consume already used accepted scope again.
  • External effect invented. A local success response cannot substitute for the actual downstream result.
