If you're using iCompleat with the Universal Connector the first invoice you receive from any supplier that has a matching order in the system will have the matching status Please select supplier.
To resolve this, you need to process the invoice & map the supplier. This creates a link between the supplier name on the invoice & the supplier saved in your reference data, letting iCompleat automatically match this invoice & future invoices to the correct order.
There are two ways you can map the supplier for an invoice with the Please select supplier status & both give you the same result:
- Use the Find a PO button, or
- During the normal processing steps.
This article shows you both methods.
Find a PO & process the invoice
- On the homepage, click Manage invoices.
- Hover over the invoice in the PO match column, & click Find a PO.
The supplier name detected by iCompleat is in the Supplier column.
-
Click the correct supplier from the drop-down.
If you have receipting switched on for the supplier, you'll only see fully receipted orders available to match.
- A list of orders available for matching appears.
Select the correct matching order.
Click the black arrow to the left of an order to see its line details.
- Click Match, & then click Match again to confirm.
- The matching status of the invoice updates to Matched.
- Now you can process the invoice & map the supplier.
Click the invoice.
- The invoice summary appears, with the supplier automatically selected according to the order you just matched the invoice to.
Click Edit in the bottom-right.
- You now have the option to map supplier defaults so future invoices from the supplier will be automatically coded & potentially submitted to a workflow. This will update other invoices from the supplier that are already in iCompleat.
Click Map supplier defaults.
If you choose not to map supplier defaults this time round, you'll need to manually code each line.
- Select the default codes from the drop-downs, & click Save.
- Click OK.
- Click Save in the bottom-right.
- When you're ready to submit the invoice for approval, click Submit, & then select a workflow.
