Invoice Control Workspace

If a packing slip does not match a vendor invoice in the Invoice Reconciliation workspace, use the Invoice Control workspace to address the problem (for example, by making a price adjustment).

You can also use this workspace to reconcile part of a packing slip with an invoice or part of an invoice with a packing slip.

Use this workspace when there is a difference between an entered vendor invoice and an item receipt related to invoice reconciliation in the Invoice Reconciliation workspace.

You might want to perform a partial reconciliation of an invoice or a packing slip. If you are working with a packing slip, the sub-tab displays item lines, showing how many items were received and at what price. If you are working with an invoice, the sub-tab is empty.

The tab of this workspace displays information about the current invoice or packing slip. The sub-tab displays the information that you might need to update so that the difference can be reconciled. A difference can occur if a shipment of goods is received at a higher price than anticipated, for example, if the vendor has marked up the price since the last shipment. If you want to perform a cost price adjustment in the sub-tab, and you want the new price to be used when making future purchases, you specify a purchase price list for the current line in the sub-tab. This ensures that the price at step 1 of the specified purchase price list is updated with the new price.
