Invoice Approval - BAR3200

Accounts Receivable > Maintenance > Invoice Approval

This page is used to review and approve invoices that are created by other users. Only users with permission to approve invoices can access the Invoice Approval page. You can approve invoices and return invoices to the originator for modifications.

Note: The Accounts Receivable > Invoice Approval link is displayed on the Approval Summary page if the logged-on user has pending invoice approvals. However, the link will not be displayed if the approver does not have access to the Invoice Approval page in Security.
