Objectives 💡This article explains how a Project Manager can approve a Vendor Invoice. |
Things to consider
● Reviewing a Vendor Invoice can be done from both the Receipts
table or the Receipt page in BuildOps web.
● We recommend that Project Managers set up a saved Table
View on the Receipts page to easily sort for Receipts where
review is needed.
○ Reorder the columns to display the Vendor Document
Number, Project Manager, and Approval Status towards
the left side of the table for increased visibility.
○ Apply filters as needed to only display Receipts assigned to
a specific Project Manager.
