Verification and approval of invoices in Mini
- Purchase, travel and expense invoices can be verified and approved in Mini. Notifications concerning invoices pending verification and approval are always sent to Mini, and they follow the approval circulation defined in Invoice circulation management (Management > Company info > Invoice circulation management).
- A notification of an invoice is displayed in Mini for verification/approval to the person whose turn it is in the approval circulation. Invalidated and approved invoices are also displayed in Mini if a notification concerning them has been sent in the program to the verifier or approver before the invoice was invalidated or approved. However, in this case, the notification is displayed as already processed in the application, and the invoice cannot be processed in the application anymore. The application displays the invoice row data and the invoice attachment file behind the Attachments button. The invoice cannot be edited in the application.
- If you wish to enter a comment upon verification/approval or forward the invoice to another verifier or approver, this must be done in Procountor.
- Actions taken in the application add an entry Verified From API to the invoice transaction data.
