Invoice scanning

How to scan invoices

The scanning function is available in Accounting: Suppliers' invoices (If the user is entering the invoice data, Manual registration shall be used) There are three different ways to send invoices for interpretation:

One is to e-mail invoices to be interpreted with an email address for each company. Contact Marathon Support to get your address. This is the simplest way of sending the invoices, thus recommended.

“”The invoices in the mail has to be in PDF format and have a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. Only one PDF can be attached per e-mail. If the PDF consists of several invoices, they have to be split into individual files. It is possible to send several indicvidual files in one e-mail, but the mail has to be clean of any other thing such as links, signatures etc.””

The procedure is fully automatised, e-mail with exceptions are stuck in the manual check, which delays the procedure.

It is also possible to upload the invoices directly to Marathon with the functions Scanning or Direct import.

Scanning:

Select SCANNING, then IMPORT. Select the invoices to be imported.

The imported invoices are shown on the left side with one image per page. Use the check boxes next to the image to send it for interpretation. When checked, they are also numbered.

The invoices can then be sent in as separate invoices or as a multi-paged invoice. SAVE sends the selected invoices as a multi-paged invoice where the numbers indicate pages. SAVE SEPARATE sends the selected invoices as separate invoices.

Direct import:

Select DIRECT IMPORT. Select the files that shall be sent for interpretation, press thereafter OK.

Status:

The Preliminary entering tab has a column that shows the status of the scanned invoice.

A record will be set up for each sent invoice in the Preliminary entering. The status will be ”Sent+todays date”. When the invoice has been returned after interpretation, the status field is blank and the invoice is ready for further handling.

The OK column:

In this column you will see the results of different check-ups, i.e. with the supplier register. The check ups-are:

1. Check if supplier is missing

2. Check if several suppliers match

3. Check if approver is missing

4. Check if invoice with same invoice number already exists

5. Check if there is VAT on a foreign supplier

6. OK (If OK, the invoice is ready for sending to approvers)
