Amount Group Locator

Amount Group Locator icon The Amount Group Locator works in partnership with the Invoice Group Locator and the Order Group Locator. The Amount Group Locator contains all of the fields that are related to, or make up, the total amount of an invoice. Not all of these fields need to be present on the document. Instead the system internally determines what fields are present, and all validations are based on the fields that are actually used.

When you run this extraction, the locator looks at a document for various amount fields and adds them to ensure that they match the formula: NetAmount + TaxAmount = Total. The extracted fields must match the amount of the total that is found on the document.

This locator includes the following predefined subfields:

SubTotal

Shows the sum of all line items on the document. This is necessary when calculated items like taxes, postage, packaging, and credit are present. In the absence of these items, SubTotal = Total.

NetAmount0

Contains the amount if no tax rate is available and applied.

NetAmount1/TaxAmount1/TaxRate1

Forms a group composed of these three fields. The corresponding fields are filled with the first net amount of the first applied tax rate.

NetAmount2/TaxAmount2/TaxRate2

Forms a group composed of these three fields. The corresponding fields are filled with the second net amount of the second applied tax rate.

NetAmount3/TaxAmount3/TaxRate3

Forms a group composed of these three fields. The corresponding fields are filled with the third net amount of the third applied tax rate.

NetAmount4/TaxAmount4/TaxRate4

Forms a group composed of these three fields. The corresponding fields are filled with the fourth net amount of the fourth applied tax rate.

Postage
