The Internal Account Invoices feature is used to enter invoices for Standard POs, Blanket POs, Non-Purchase Orders, Utility Invoices, and Revenue Refunds. This module is an important step in the accounts payable process. Once a purchase order has been approved, received, and released (depending on the district’s process), an invoice will be created for payment. An invoice must be created before a batch of checks can be printed. Creating the invoice and the batch will be done from the Internal Account Invoices module.
1. Click the PO Invoice tab, once your batch has been created (as shown in Internal Account Invoices Navigation).
2. Select the created batch from the Batch pull-down.
3. Select the PO you wish to attach to the chosen batch from the PO # pull-down.
