Match type

After invoices and PO/receipts are grouped together in a pool, you use match rules to define how invoices and PO/receipts in the match pool are matched to each other.

You can match:

  • One invoice to one receipt,

  • One invoice to all receipts,

  • All invoices to one receipt, or

  • All invoices to all receipts

One to one match rule example

With a one to one match rule, the system looks for one invoice and one receipt with identical amounts (within tolerance).

One to all match rule example

With a one to all match rule, the system looks for any number of receipts with amounts that add up to the total of one invoice (within tolerance).

All to one match rule example

With an all to one match rule, the system looks for any number of invoices with amounts that add up to the total of one receipt (within tolerance).

Illustration: Using an all to one match rule

All to all match rule example

With an all to all match rule, the system looks at the total amount for all invoices to equal the total amount of all receipts (within tolerance). This option only valid for Invoice level match (not for detail level match).
