Integrating and Processing Third Party Imaging Solutions

Follow these steps to integrate and process a third party imaging solution with Payables and eSettlements:

1. Setting up installation options: As a prerequisite, you set up the installation options at the time of integrating a third party imaging product with PeopleSoft on the Installation Options – Payables page. The Document Management Interface section determines enabling the imaging links that are available on various pages in Accounts Payable and eSettlements.

   See Application Fundamentals: Installation Options - Payables Page

2. Configuring the Accounts Payable business unit options: As a prerequisite, you configure your business unit options based on your imaging integration requirements on the Payables Options – Document Management page.

3. Accessing the Imaging hyperlinks from Accounts Payable: You can access the scanned invoice image using a hyperlink on various components in Accounts Payable. The Quick Invoice page displays the imaging link once the data is populated into the voucher staging tables. The following pages display the imaging link once the Voucher Build process runs successfully and creates a voucher:

   • Quick Invoice Page

   • Invoice Information Page

   • Voucher Inquiry Page

   • Approval Framework - Vouchers – Approval Page

   • Example: Accounts Payable WorkCenter

   Accessing the Imaging hyperlinks from eSettlements: Once the Voucher Build process runs successfully and creates a voucher, you can access the scanned invoice image from the following pages:

   • PeopleSoft eSettlements: Review Invoices - Invoice Inquiry Page

   • PeopleSoft eSettlements: Invoice Approval Page
