Debit Memo Vouchers

The Matching process calls the Voucher Build process to automatically create debit memo adjustment vouchers to resolve matching exceptions between the amount on a voucher and the purchase orders and receivers that are associated with that voucher. You can dispatch debit memo information to the supplier using print, phone, fax, email, or electronic data exchange (EDX). The creation of the debit memo voucher requires:

• An agreement with the supplier that allows the adjustment to the voucher.

  You define this agreement on the Supplier component (VNDR_ID).

• A match rule that allows debit memo vouchers.

  Match rules are defined on the Match Rule Type page, the Match Rules page, and the Match Rule Control page.

• The Matching process to be run.

  You can run the Matching process in batch or you can initiate the Matching process from the Match Workbench.

Note:

You cannot select debit memos as a voucher build interface from the Voucher Build page. The Matching process calls the Voucher Build process to create the debit memo adjustment vouchers.

When the Voucher Build process is initiated, debit memo adjustment vouchers are handled similarly to other voucher build source transactions.
