The Pay Req and Invoice process is used to process and obtain approval for a Contractor or Consultant Invoice.
The process includes a step that ensures invoice numbers comply with SAP requirements. (no special characters and length of the invoice number)
As of 5/29/2019 the process checks the invoice total for a value less than or equal to 0. If true the process is returned to the initiator to correct the invoice total, which must be a positive number.
All invoices are approved by the Accounting Manager.
