Match order

The match order is an attribute of a match rule that determines the order in which the match rules are performed. The match order for each match rule must be defined.

The defined match order determines the order in which an invoice match is attempted with these rules. For example, match for the invoice with rule 1 is searched for. If a successful match occurs, then the process is finished and the invoice is matched and ready for payment.

If rule 1 does not yield a successful match, then a match attempt takes place using rule 2. This process continues automatically until a successful match occurs, or until all rules fail to yield a successful match.
