Straight through processing

This is when a document passes through Kofax AP Agility without a need for user intervention. This happens when all documents in a folder are successfully extracted and validated, bypassing manual validation altogether. Straight through processing ensures that documents are processed as quickly as possible.

There are, however, settings that stop straight through processing altogether. The following settings force a document to go to the Validation activity, even when that document is fully valid.

  • The Force Verify setting in Settings > Invoice Processing > Capture Profiles > Field Settings.

    If this setting is selected, all documents with this field are sent to Validation activity, even those documents that are fully valid.

  • The Stop All Credits setting in Settings > Invoice Processing > Capture Profiles > Document Type Settings.

    If this setting is selected, all credit memo documents are sent to Validation activity, even those documents that are fully valid.

  • The Force Verify setting in Settings > Organizations.

    If this setting is selected, all documents for the specified organization are routed to Validation activity for review, even those documents that are fully valid.

Use these settings only when necessary as they stop straight through processing. If documents do not need validation, sending them to Validation activity unnecessarily increases processing time.
