Indicate use of Automated Invoicing (Self-Billing)

Explanation

Use this activity to indicate use of automated invoicing (self-billing).

The use of the automated invoicing function, i.e., two way matching (ERS, Evaluated Receipts), eliminates the need to have invoices. Receipts associated with certain suppliers can be automatically invoiced instead of waiting for the invoice from the supplier. This function is best used when there is a close relationship between your company and the supplier. If you use this functionality, no invoice matching tolerance checks will be performed for this supplier. Any matching tolerance amounts or percentages entered for the supplier will be ignored.

Prerequisites

The supplier must have been entered in the system, i.e., general, address, invoice, purchase, and payment information.

System Effects

When the Self-billing check box is selected, the parameter is set as default on each purchase order line that is registered with this supplier. The supplier invoice is automatically generated when the arrival is entered. The invoice is automatically matched and ready to be paid.
