Invoice Status / Reason Field Explained
The Status / Reason field shows the matched status of lines on the to p line of the field and if lines are not matched it indicates the reason why on the bottom line. This field together with the Outstanding field provide a full picture of each invoice line so it is important for approvers to understand these fields fully.

Status	Reason	Outstanding	What this means	Action
Awaiting Approval	Manual Assigning Necessary	Full amount of the line is shown as O/S in Red	This line is unmatched and needs to be manually assigned to the correct PO line by the approver.	Click the invoice line, then click the PO line and click Match Lines button.
Part Approved Against Purchase Order	Price Greater than PO	Value of less than 5c shown in Blue	This means there is a rounding issue on the invoice causing a small difference between the line total on the invoice and the calculated total using the QTY x Price. Generally caused by prices of more than 2 decimal places rounded differently by different systems. The value is shown in blue to indicate it is within the allowed rounding tolerance.	No physical action needed. Check the QTY and Price and ensure you are satisfied with the values as normal.
Line Fully Matched	Price Less than PO	Auto Matched in Green	The line is auto matched by the system. The price does not match the PO but it is less than the price on the PO which is accepted as a match.	No physical action needed. Check the QTY and Price as normal to confirm delivery.
Line Fully matched	Matched - No check required	Auto Matched in Green	The line is auto matched by the system because all details match the PO.	No physical action needed. Check the QTY and Price as normal to confirm delivery.
Approved without value quantity match		Line Value in Purple	This shows the line is picked up and linked on product details with a corresponding line on the PO. But the price and quantity do not match.	Invoice and PO lines do not need to be manually clicked and matched to each other but the QTY and Price need to be checked.
