Reviewing Process Results


Reviewing the results:

Invoices entered in SGA are immediately available in reports, as reports can be customized to include unposted entries. To be considered a real invoice a document must include a vendor id and at least one GL Distribution line containing both an amount and GL account. If any of this information is missing an invoice is considered “temporary” and is not available in reports. The following steps will discuss how to review batches resulting from the Capture process when they contain real as well as temporary invoices.

Reviewing batches without temporary invoices:

  • Following Step 16 from “Running Capture” the “Capture Complete” screen is displayed when the process finishes.
  • The screen will display the batch number created and will notify you of any warnings that arose during processing. For example, if an invoice is a potential duplicate:

  • To immediately review the resulting invoices click “Review batch”. A new browser window will open displaying the Invoice Edit screen.
  • The Invoice Edit screen contains three sections:
    • AP Batch listing (upper left) – This section displays the batch detail listing every invoice created through the Capture process:
    • Invoice detail (bottom left) – This section displays the invoice entry detail for the invoice line item highlighted in the AP Batch listing
    • Invoice Attachment (right) – This section displays all attachment images associated with the invoice line item highlighted in the AP Batch listing.
  • Changes may be made to any invoice in the AP Batch listing.
  • If changes are made click Save to store them until the batch is posted.
  • If all information appears to be accurate click “Post” to post the batch from the Invoice Edit screen, or click “Post” from the AP Batches screen.
