If you are using Supply Chain Integration, execute the Import purchase invoice process to import any electronic messages you have received into Isah. To receive and import an electronic message, perform the following steps:

1. Open the email with the electronic message you have received, and save the attached XML message to a folder.
2. Open the Financial module, navigate to the Purchase invoices form, open the Edit menu, and start the Import purchase invoice process.
3. Open the folder in which you have saved the XML message and select the message.

If the import was successful, a purchase invoice was created on the Purchase invoices form. The Electronic messages form displays the imported invoice messages. The form also shows whether the import was successful, and allows you to view any error messages or other messages.

Checks

When importing the message, one of the things Isah checks is whether the purchase invoice already exists. It does so by searching the purchase invoices in Isah for the combination of the supplier's invoice number and the supplier's SCSN code. If it already exists, the invoice will not be added to Isah again. For the other checks, see Checks made when importing a purchase invoice.
