Match Exceptions

A three-way match compares invoices to purchase orders and receiving documents to ensure payment is processed for ordered and received goods/services. If invoice passes the match process, OAKS FIN flags invoice as matched for approval process. If invoice does not match, OAKS FIN flags invoice as a match exception requiring correction for the following common exceptions:

• Extended amount on invoice exceeds extended amount on PO; plus allowable 10% tolerance.
• Different unit price between invoice and PO.
• Required receipt is not provided.
• Receipt entered for PO does not match invoice.
• Receipt total is greater than voucher line total.
• Voucher line invoiced quantity is not equal to the sum of all received quantities that are associated with voucher line.
