Purchase order review messages

Use this procedure to review invoice messages for purchase orders and to correct the difference in cost.

  1. Sign in as Buyer and select Manage Other Processes > Review My Messages.
  2. Click the Open Invoice Messages tab and open a message.
  3. In the Unit Cost Action field, specify this information:
    • Select Forward to forward the message to the authority code or buyer in the Forward to Authority Code or Forward to Buyer fields. The message is sent to the email address that is specified for the authority code or buyer.
    • Select Accept Cost to accept that the cost on the purchase order and the invoice are different. The match will fail if the match tolerances are not different from 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 if the cost is outside of the match tolerances, you must intervene during the reconciliation process.
    • Select Adjust Cost to adjust the cost on the receipt to the new unit cost and to update the purchase order cost and match the invoice.
  4. Click Save and click Release PO Cost.
