The MYOB Acumatica way
Where to find it: Bills and Adjustments > Hold
- Put the bill On Hold. It cannot be released or paid.
- Note the reason on the bill.
- Take it off hold when settled. If approvals are on, it goes through approval again.
The Pulsify way
- Forward the invoice to Pulsify. It flags price and quantity differences against the PO and possible duplicates.
- If you disagree with the bill, reject it with a reason. The reason is saved with the bill.
- When the corrected invoice or credit note arrives, forward it and approve it.
