What happens if I force approve an invoice?

The outcome depends on whether the invoice approval status is Initiated.

If the status is Initiated, force approving an invoice:

  • Ends existing approval processes

  • Cancels pending notifications

  • Updates the approval status to Manually approved

  • Records this information in the invoice approval history

If the status is other than Initiated, force approving an invoice:

  • Updates the approval status to Manually approved

  • Records this information in the invoice approval history
