Purchase order review messages

Use this procedure to review purchase order review messages and correct the differences in cost.

  1. Sign in as Buyer and select Manage Other Processes > Review My Messages.
  2. On the Open Invoice Messages tab or the Resolved Invoice Messages tab, right-click a record and select Update.
  3. On the Match Message page, you can resolve the message.
  4. In the Unit Cost Action field, specify this information:
    • Select Forward to forward the message to the authority code or buyer that is selected in the Forward to Authority Code or Forward to Buyer fields.
    • Select Accept Cost to accept that the cost on the Purchase Order and the Invoice are different. This action will cause the match to fail if the match tolerances are not different than the Purchase Review Tolerances. If you select this option, the updated Unit Cost must be the invoice cost or a cost that is within the match tolerances. If the cost is not specified, or the cost is outside of the match tolerances, you will be required to intervene during the reconciliation process.
    • Select Adjust Cost to adjust the cost on the receipt to the new Unit Cost to update the purchase order cost and match the invoice.
