When vendor invoices are imported from data management (with OCR or scanner process), there is no automatic receipt matching.

If the purchase order has already been received and product receipt information is part of pending invoice imported, match status is not automatically updated.

Invoice has to be edited to have match status refreshed.

The idea will have an option (or batch) to automatically match the pending invoice is purchase reception.

Workflow with several approval steps is rejected on last one.

Actual behavior: Workflow will have to be resubmitted by initial user.

Expected result:  Workflow should then be reassigned to a selected step (n-1) 

Purchase orders are created. Accounting distribution is then based on inventory posting. (or category posting).

If for any business requirement, posting is modified. all puchase orders created before will not consider this new accounting distribution during invoice validation.

All lines required manual update to see new distribution. It is time consuming.

Periodic process should be implemented in order to update accounting distribution based on some criteria selected by customer.

When consolidation process is run twice on same period, there is no control or indication that new transactions have been transferred.

Period statut does not work on consolidation company so no blocking can be done.

The idea will be to have some warning or control before process is completed to identify new transactions when process is run several times.

Intercompany direct delivery is created with automatic purchase invoice validation.

If workflow is activated on Intercompany purchase company, the Intercompany sales is cannot be posted as ICO purchase invoice is not submitted to workflow.

But purchase invoice workflow cannot be submitted as set for automatic posting.

Workflow should consider Intercompany flow with automatic posting.

Workaround: conditional activation should be added to not consider intercompany.

To work workflow should not be set "as default"
