Dashparts

Field Description
Approved Invoices Payment Status

This dashpart is automatically populated with bars that indicate the payment status of invoices/vouchers. Click the bar hyperlink to go to the Manage Invoices screen and access the corresponding invoices.

The new dashpart shows all approved (approved by the payer/supplier) vouchers that are not yet paid (unpaid), have partial payment (partially paid) or fully paid (paid).

Use the hyperlink to go to the particular invoice(s)/voucher(s) on the Manage Invoices screen to take necessary action and/or to enter notes.

“Display Paid Invoices from the Last No. of Days” is used to filter and compute the number of PO vouchers/invoices to be displayed under the “Paid” bar graph.

The dashpart only includes invoices for purchase orders with a buyer’s organization ID (PO_HDR.BUY_ORG_ID) for which the user is authorized, based on the organization security profile linked to the organization security group associated with the user ID.

Note: The new dashpart is added in Costpoint 8.2.12. If you are in Costpoint Cloud, you can choose to opt-in to this feature. The ability to opt-in is temporary and will be removed when the feature becomes automatically enabled for all users as part of the release. See the Manage Opt-In Features topic for more information.
