Automatic validation of invoices

By default, all supplier invoices are automatically validated when transferred to the M3. This process corresponds to selecting the Validation option, which is option 8, in ‘Supplier Invoice Batch. Open’ (APS450). The invoice must pass validation without any errors before it can be updated to Accounts Payable.

If no errors are detected during validation, the batch invoice status is set to 50 - Approved. Batch invoices with this status are automatically updated to Accounts Payable, provided that the auto update parameter is set to 1 (always) or 2 (only if no warnings exist) for the AP50 FAM function in 'FAM Function. Open' (CRS405).

To disable the automatic validation, change the LoadSupplierInvoice BOD settings in the Enterprise Collaborator.
