You must click Yes or No to proceed. If you click Yes, you can continue entering the purchase order selected.

If you click No, the PO # selected is cleared and you must specify a different purchase order. The specified vendor is unchanged.

Leave the Ask Confirmation When PO Vendor does not Match Invoice Vendor option unchecked, no check is made to determine if the vendor on the selected PO matches the vendor specified in the Vendor # field on the Purchase Order Header-Create window.

Record Limit

If you selected Purchase Order Headers and Lines in the Purchase Order Results field, you can specify a maximum number of records to display in the Purchase Order Headers and Lines grid on the Vendor Invoice Center-Invoice Detail window. Use this field to limit the number of rows to be returned when you select an invoice to maintain with multiple purchase orders and lines, and possibly avoid a time-out situation.

If the number of qualifying POs and lines for the selected invoice exceeds this value, the message Warning: Record Count Limit Has Been Reached for Purchase Order Headers and Lines. Consider Searching for Purchase Order Headers instead. is displayed.

Note: This setting is only applied to the Purchase Order Headers and Lines grid. It is not applied if you are viewing the Purchase Order Headers grid.
Show Invoice Add Screen When Closing Invoice Detail

By default, when you access Vendor Invoice Center Entry to add or maintain an invoice, you remain in add mode after leaving the Invoice Detail window. The Invoice Detail - Create window is displayed where you can immediately enter another invoice.

Use this option to alter this workflow, if you do not want to be placed in add mode again after entering an invoice. To change this setting for the current session, clear the option when you first access Vendor Invoice Center Entry. When Show Invoice Add Screen When Closing Invoice Detail is unchecked, you are returned to the Invoice List view after leaving the Invoice Detail window.

Clearing the Show Invoice Add Screen When Closing Invoice Detail option is useful if you are only maintaining a list of existing invoices and want to avoid having to cancel from the Show Invoice Add Screen When Closing Invoice Detail window to return to the Invoice List.
