The Reprocess function allows you to reprocess the current invoice or all invoices in the queue Capture Verification that are linked to the supplier of the current invoice. The function also allows you to process invoices where the supplier is not identified. In such cases, machine learning can help identify the supplier during processing.
To reprocess invoices, click the Reprocess button in the Verification window.
A dialog window opens where you can choose one of the three options:
- This invoice
The current invoice will be processed. If there is a new learning available for this invoice, it will be applied and you will immediately see the resulting changes in the invoice. - All invoices with this supplier
All invoices in the verification queue that have the same supplier and belong to the same company as the current invoice will be processed. - All invoices with no identified supplier
All invoices in the verification queue that belong to the same company as the current invoice but have no identified supplier will be reprocessed.
While an invoice is being reprocessed, a message will be displayed, all fields will also be grayed out and cannot be edited.
If after processing the invoice is sent back to the verification queue, the message will be faded out and the invoice will be available for editing again.
If you selected option 2 or 3, the system will continue processing all subsequent invoices so the same message can be displayed when opening other invoices.
If the invoice is sent to the workflow with the Touchless function after reprocessing, the message will change. In this case, the user has to jump to the next invoice or go to the verification queue and do a manual update.
Tip!
As reprocessing can send invoices to workflow, change captured values, or identify a supplier, we recommend refreshing the verification queue to view these updates.
How to use Reprocess
- To benefit from learning, verify and send two invoices from the same supplier to the workflow. Then, on the third invoice, run the Reprocess function with the This invoice option selected. Thus, the system will apply learning from previously processed invoices to this invoice.
- Activate Touchless Automation for the current supplier and run the Reprocess function with the This invoice option selected. The current invoice will be reprocessed, and you will be notified if the invoice has been automatically sent to the workflow.
- Activate Touchless Automation for the current supplier and run the Reprocess function with the option All invoices with this supplier selected. All invoices in the verification queue that have same receiving company and the same supplier will be reprocessed. Invoices where all fields are marked in green will be automatically sent to workflow.
Note!
Invoices imported using Automatic company identification that are not linked to a known company will not be reprocessed.
