Invoice Matching. If you use Oracle Payables with Oracle Purchasing or another integrated purchasing product, you can enable online matching of invoices and original purchase orders. Matching ensures that you only pay for the goods and services you ordered and that your suppliers do not over-bill you for the items or services. If you are billed for an item over the amount and quantity tolerances you define, Payables applies holds to the invoice and prevents payment until you release the holds.
