Test invoice field validation methods
Use the procedure in this topic to test an invoice field validation method.
Configuring an invoice field validation method involves several fields. When testing this validation method, you must enter data for multiple fields to simulate invoice extraction and validation.
During testing, the values in the Test Value column use the settings defined in the standard amount formatter. If you did not modify the standard amount formatter, ensure that your test values contain a decimal point and two decimal places. For example, use 2.00 or 2,00. If you do not match these requirements of the formatter, testing could generate errors.
During production, the validation formatting assigned to the extraction fields is used.
