Reasons for Rates Mismatch 

Reasons for Invoice Rates Mismatch addadditional validation to the invoicing process. With this feature turned on, when a provider submits an invoice with the rates above or below the agreed upon rates, they are prompted to provide a reason for the discrepancy in rates.  

This allows you to make more informed decisions when acting on invoices with mismatched rates and resolve disputes faster. 

You can decide which of your providers are required to submit reasons for mismatched rates. Each time the selected providers try to submit rates that are higher or lower than the agreed upon ones, they will be prompted to enter a comment explaining the discrepancy. 


Note

Contact your ServiceChannel manager to enable mismatch reasons.
