Business management feature

Manage purchase invoices with a clear record of every handoff.

Register the invoices your suppliers send you (accounts payable), take each one through an approve → pay flow, and keep an eye on what is still unpaid.

The Purchase Invoices feature keeps its source record, status, and downstream references inside BusinessIntents. Teams can work from the same operational context and open the detailed guide whenever they need field-level instructions.

Use the documented operating model as a starting point, then adapt fields, approvals, reports, or connected areas when your process differs.

01

Purchase Invoices

A purchase invoice is a document: a header, a line-items table, and a totals footer. Header — you enter the supplier's invoice number (required — it is the document's title, "PURCHASE INVOICE INV-2026-0451") and the invoice date, optionally a due date, and pick the Supplier (required).

02

Invoice lines

Lines are free-text — you copy them off the supplier's paper, there is no product picker: 1. Type the line name, the quantity and the price (and a discount if any); pick a unit of measure if you want one. 2. Pick a Tax rate — the line's VAT rate is copied from it (default 20%); it stays editable. 3.

The approval flow (who does what)

Every new purchase invoice starts a small workflow; the tasks appear in the assignees' Inbox and inline on the invoice itself: 1. Approve — the approver sees the supplier number, registration number, dates, supplier and total, and approves or rejects.
