Repeat line pairing
Sometimes it is necessary to repeat line pairing. You can repeat line pairing so in the following situations:
-
The list of purchase order numbers is incorrect either because AP Agility did not recognize all purchase order numbers on an invoice or there are values that are not legitimate purchase order numbers. Manually enter purchase order numbers in the PO Numbers field and then press Repeat Pairing.
Line pairing is executed using the newly entered purchase order numbers.
-
You want to pair against the latest master data. Press Repeat Pairing without manually entering purchase order numbers.
If the master data has new purchase orders, these are applied and line pairing is executed with these new purchase order numbers.
However, if you click the Repeat Pairing button, any manual changes made in the Line Pairing Correction activity are lost. As a result, you are prompted to confirm that you want to repeat line pairing. For the best results, if the correct purchase order numbers are not present when you first open the Line Pairing Correction activity, try to repeat pairing before manually pairing lines.
Repeating the line pairing is also useful if you have made a mistake and want to revert your changes. Any manually paired lines are removed and the Unpaired Lines from Invoice and Available Lines from Purchase Order tables are updated to include previously paired lines.
You can repeat line pairing by following these steps:
-
Optionally, enter any missing purchase order numbers into the
PO Numbers field.
If there are multiple purchase order numbers, separate them with a comma and enter each PO on its own line.
You do not need to manually provide anything if you do not know the missing purchase order numbers or if you want to check your ERP system for newly added purchase order numbers.
