Add attachment
You can add attachments to the purchase invoice.

Add comment
You can add comments to a purchase invoice. Comments are visible to everyone who has the right to view the invoice. Comments are not official accounting documents. You can find the comment field at the bottom of the Circulation tab.

If a comment has been added to the invoice, a comment icon is displayed in the header of the Circulation tab and in the Payments view on the invoice row.

-
The purchase invoice will be moved to the Clarification tab.
-
The purchase invoice will be suspended from circulation until one of the users on the invoice circulation list removes the purchase invoice from clarification by selecting Remove from clarification.

-
After this, the purchase invoice will continue its normal circulation.
