3 WAY MATCHING

Craftable's 3-Way Match improves invoice processing and cost control by streamlining the comparison of Purchase Orders (POs), Delivery Receipts, and Invoices

Craftable’s 3-Way Match simplifies the comparison of purchase orders, delivery receipts, and invoices, lowering the risk of errors.

It allows you to create %-based thresholds to enforce company standards for variance allowed in delivery receipt vs invoice.

To set thresholds for 3-Way Matching:

  1. Navigate to Reconciliation Rules at the ALL level
  2. Click + New Reconciliation Rule
  3. Select the Vendor(s), enter a GL Prefix and Threshold %

Example:

In this case, a 2% threshold rule was established for all vendors. 

Any price difference exceeding 2% must be addressed and will trigger a warning on the invoice or delivery receipt, as shown below.

Linking Delivery Receipts (Orders) to Invoices

Multiple Delivery Receipts can be linked to one invoice and/or multiple invoices can be linked to one Delivery Receipt

  1. Click Receive Order to generate a Delivery Receipt. 
  2. Receive the lines on the Delivery Receipt (click here if you need a refresher on generating and receiving lines on a Delivery Receipt)
  3. Navigate to Invoices > Vendor Invoices > select an invoice.
  4. Click None under Reconciliation and select the Delivery Receipt/Order to link to the invoice.   
    1. The Approve button does not appear after linking the Delivery Receipt/Order because the invoice exceeds the original order by $50. To proceed with approval, the discrepancy must be resolved.
  5. Address discrepancies to approve the invoice. 

If the invoice is lower than the delivery receipt, it is accepted regardless of the difference. The threshold only applies when the invoice exceeds the delivery receipt.
