Voucher Match Automation Rules for Suppliers

The automation rule is a code that determines the rules by which the process matches invoices to receipts and purchase orders. When you run the VMA process, for each record in the F0411Z1 table that is flagged as a record for voucher match automation, the system uses the automation rule that exists in the F0411Z1 table to determine the rules to use when performing the match. If no automation rule exists for the record in the F0411Z1 table, then the process accesses the supplier's record in the Supplier Master table (F0401) to obtain the default automation rule to use to match the invoice to receipts and purchase orders.

If you run the VMA process and the process does not find a valid automation rule in either the F0411Z1 or F0401 table, then the process does not perform the match or create vouchers.
