Examples: Invoice Selection Match and Matching Open Invoice Amount

These examples illustrate how the system applies receipts to invoices using the Invoice Selection Match algorithm for these processing option settings:

  • Matching: Open Invoice Amount

  • Underpaid Tolerance: 10

  • Overpaid Tolerance: 10

Receipt Amount: 220

Invoice Number

Invoice Open Amount

112

100

113

200

The system attempts to match the receipt to invoice 112. Because the amount does not match, the system attempts to match the receipt to invoice 112 and 113. Because the amount does not match, and is not within a tolerance limit of 10, the system does not pay any of the invoices.

Receipt Amount: 100

Invoice Number

Invoice Open Amount

278

100

285

200

290

300

The system attempts to match the receipt to invoice 278. Because the amount matches, the system applies the receipt to the invoice and stops processing.

Receipt Amount: 300

Invoice Number

Invoice Open Amount

335

100

362

200

The system attempts to match the receipt to invoice 335. Because the amount does not match, the system attempts to match the receipt to invoice 335 and 362. Because the receipt amount matches the amount of both invoices, the system pays both invoices.
