Automatic invoice validation

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

If you opt to disable automatic validation, change the default setting for the LoadSupplierInvoice BOD in the Enterprise Collaborator.

If no error is found during validation, the batch invoice status is set to 50 - Approved. Invoices with this status are automatically updated to Accounts Payable if the Auto Update parameter for the AP50 FAM function in 'FAM Function. Open' (CRS405) is set to these values:

• 1: Always auto-update
• 2: Auto-update if no warning
