Match Invoice Approval (MA61.1)

Use Match Invoice Approval (MA61.1) to approve a match invoice when the receipt does not exist in the application. For example, when a proof of delivery has been issued, or when the receipt has been mismatched to another invoice.

MA61 requires that you create invoice detail prior to invoice approval. You can enter invoice detail manually or create invoice detail using the purchase order.

Processing Effect

Purchase Order found:

  • The application determines if the item is an inventory item, or a non-inventory item. If the item is a non-inventory item, the application retrieves the posting account information from the purchase order lines. If the item is an inventory item, the matched no-receipt account you defined in Company (MA01.1) is used for posting.
  • To approve the invoice, select the Approve ("R") form action. MA61 releases the invoice and creates distribution records.

Purchase Order not found:

  • The application determines if the item is an inventory item, or a non-inventory item. If the item is a non-inventory item, you must enter an account for posting. If the item is an inventory item, the matched no-receipt account you defined in MA01.1 (Company) is used for posting.

To approve the invoice, select the Approve ("R") form action. MA61 releases the invoice and creates distribution records.
