Action Buttons On Invoice Handling

What can you do with the two action buttons?

On Active invoices section, there are two action buttons: a checkmark and a return button.

  • With the checkmark, you can approve a task.
  • With the return button, you can send the invoice back to the previous handler or to AP and you can archive an invoice.

 

Closing (approving) a task

To approve a task, the invoice needs to be in the Active invoices section. To move an invoice there, select it from the Next invoices section and choose whether you want to add it to Active invoices or replace invoice(s) in Active invoices section with the selected invoice(s).

Move to active

The arrow on the left replaces the invoice(s) in the Active invoices section. The arrow on the right adds the selected invoice(s) to the Active invoices section.

You can have multiple invoices in active invoices table. When you click the approve button, all invoices will be approved simultaneously. A number of invoices shown above of approving sign.
