Currently when approving an invoice you have to open the batch to obtain the cost code that has been used. By displaying the cost code on the approval screen for single invoice batches the approval process will be quicker.

Hi Andrew,
Thanks for the suggestion and Happy New Year.
Mettle does not have Advanced Invoice Approvals, therefore is the individual invoice methodology an option for Mettle?
If so I will log a case to explore further.
Thanks.
Regards,
Paul.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for the suggestion. The only issue we have is that costing is always held at dissection level. However I understand the requirement and it would be nice to solve it if we can speed things up for you.
A couple of things that may help you in the meantime.
- There is an Individual Invoice Approval methodology that removes the need to batch coded invoices and the second step of sending them for approval. Using this method you can send for approval directly from the coding screen.
This will also allow you to approve invoices individually rather than batches of Invoices and you get a different view in the approval screens.
- There are configuration options that allow you to collate the dissection Coding reports alongside the scanned images of all the invoices you want to approve.
Please log a request for consulting if you are interested in any of these tweaks.
I will consider your request further for roadmap.
