Match Invoices

Match invoices are purchase order or service agreement invoices. Receipt invoices will match to the receipt that was created using the Purchase Order. Drop Ship Invoices will match to the Purchase Order due to the fact that a receipt is not required because the items are shipped from a third party. Service invoices will be matched to a Service Purchase Order or to a Service agreement. Match invoices are processed according to the match rules defined for the vendor or company.

Service Only Invoice

A service only invoice results from a purchase order or service agreement issued to a vendor for a service. For example, you request phone service through a purchase order issued to the phone company. The purchase order number is used strictly for identification purposes. Invoice detail lines are created based on the accounting information defined on the purchase order or from the vendor agreement service contract.

Match invoices include service lines that are compared in the match process.

Drop Ship Invoice

A drop ship purchase order creates a unique invoice process. In a drop ship situation, a customer orders an item from your company, Company A. Another company, Company B, sends the item directly to the customer without the item being received at Company A. Therefore, Company A has a purchase order but no receiving document for the purchase order. Invoice detail lines are required and are created based on the accounting information defined on the purchase order line. A handling code for drop ship must be set up.

AOC Only Invoice

An AOC only invoice is an invoice for just an add on charge/allowance, such as freight, and is issued by a company other than the vendor. For example, you request goods from a vendor who invoices you for the goods only. The shipping company sends you an invoice for only the freight cost of the shipment. Invoice detail lines are created based on the accounting information defined on the purchase order line item or defined on the purchase order header.
