Purchase Order Shipment and Distribution Matching

You can match to purchase order shipments or distributions. A purchase order shipment may have multiple distributions. If you are billed for only a portion of a shipment, you may want to match at the distribution level to ensure you charge the correct account.

You may want to record a price correction for a purchase order shipment if you receive an invoice from a supplier that is an adjustment to the unit price of an invoice you previously matched to a purchase order shipment. You can record price corrections without adjusting the quantity billed on the purchase order.

You can reverse purchase order matches in the Distributions window of the Invoice Workbench. You can cancel invoices matched to purchase orders in the Actions window of the Invoice Workbench. If you cancel an invoice matched to a purchase order, in addition to creating reversing distributions, Payables reverses the match to the purchase order by cancelling the invoiced quantity and amount of the original distributions. Payables reduces the billed quantity and billed amount on the matched purchase order distributions to their original amounts. You can then match these purchase order shipments and distributions to other invoices.
