Auditor | Additional Information

Additional Information Button

The "Additional Information" option within all Invoices provides quick access to key details and status updates related to an invoice, supplementing the main invoice view with relevant contextual information.

Understanding the Fields

Here's a breakdown of the fields displayed in the "Additional Information" pop-up:

  • Discount: This field shows the discount amount applied to the invoice, if any. In your example, it displays "0," indicating no discount was applied.

  • Due: This field displays the due date of the invoice, which is August 24, 2024, in your example.

  • Payment: This field likely shows the payment status of the invoice (e.g., "Paid," "Unpaid," "Partially Paid") or the payment amount if it has been paid. However, it appears to be blank in your screenshot, suggesting the invoice is currently unpaid.

  • Provider: This field likely indicates the entity or system that provided the invoice data (e.g., the vendor's system, an email provider, or an OCR scanning system). It's blank in your example, so the exact source of the invoice data is unclear.

  • Due: This field seems redundant, as it displays the same due date as the "Due" field above. It might be a minor error in the system's display.

  • Sender: This field shows the email address from which the invoice was sent, which is "[email protected]" in your example. This can be useful for verifying the authenticity of the invoice or contacting the sender if needed.

  • Audited: This field indicates whether the invoice has been audited. In your example, the red "No" indicates that this invoice has not yet undergone the audit process.

Benefits of "Additional Information"

  • Quick Overview: Provides a concise summary of key invoice details and status without navigating away from the main invoice view.

  • Enhanced Context: Offers additional context for understanding the invoice's lifecycle and current stage in the process.

  • Improved Efficiency: Saves time by allowing users to quickly access important information without searching through the entire invoice or related documents.

  • Informed Decision-Making: Helps users make informed decisions regarding the invoice based on its payment status, due date, and audit status.

Example Scenarios

  • Confirming Payment Status: Quickly check if an invoice has been paid by looking at the "Payment" field.

  • Verifying Invoice Authenticity: Confirm the sender's email address to ensure the invoice is legitimate.

  • Prioritizing Audits: Use the "Audited" field to identify invoices that still require auditing.

By utilizing the "Additional Information" option effectively, you can enhance your understanding of invoices, streamline your workflow, and improve the efficiency of your invoice management process.
