InvoiceItems Postprocessing
There is obviously a correlation between the Invoice Items fields and the Invoice Totals field: Invoice
Items
lists the details, and Invoice Totals holds the sums.
When opening a batch that contains these two fields, some automatic checking is done. Especially, the total amount
is checked against the details; if they do not match, some self-correction is tried.
This is all done “behind the scenes”. You must do nothing, as long as you use an
Invoice Totals or US
Invoice Total
field in the DOKuStar Extraction project file.
Only if you gain the totals of an invoice by other means (e.g., self-made
KeyValue fields) and still want to use this
automatic invoice postprocessing, you must somehow tell AC Validation that these are the invoice’s total fields.
This is done by a naming convention:
The name of the field that holds the invoice’s total amount must end with
TotalAmount
If you also define fields for other things that will be delivered by the
InvoiceTotals field, like the value added tax
rate and the tax amount, the following naming conventions apply:
The name of the field that holds the invoice’s value added tax rate must end with
VatRate.
The name of the field that holds the invoice’s net amount must end with
NetAmount.
The name of the field that holds the invoice’s tax amount must end with
VatAmount.
The name of the field that holds the invoice’s currency must end with
Currency.
The name of the field that holds the invoice’s expenses amount must end with
Expenses.
There is no need to specify all of these fields, they are all optional.
