Configure Utility Supplier Optimization

Simplify processing of utility invoices.

Utility invoices frequently contain meter readings, consumption details, usage calculations, and multiple informational lines. In many organizations, these details aren’t required within Payables.

When Create Single Invoice Line for Utility Suppliers is enabled:

• Utility suppliers are identified using supplier type.
• Detailed invoice lines are suppressed.
• A single invoice line is created using the invoice subtotal.

Enable this option when:

• Utility suppliers generate complex invoice layouts.
• Detailed line processing provides little business value.
• Accounting distributions are managed through predefined rules.

Utility supplier optimization can improve recognition rates, reduce exceptions, speed up invoice creation, and lower manual review effort.

Validate the configuration by confirming that utility invoices are imported successfully, single-line invoices are created correctly, and invoice totals remain accurate.
