Mismatch and Reasons for Mismatch
You may notice the Warning icon next to one of the sections: labor, material, and other charges.
It indicates that the invoice went through validation, and there are discrepancies between the agreed and actual prices for labor, material, or other charges, the agreed markup % and the actual one. Next to them, you can see the reasons for the price mismatch.

Contact your ServiceChannel manager to be able to view invoice mismatches and the reasons for them. |
The validation depends on whether you have the agreed client rates or/and negotiated price lists with your provider.
You can check the list of agreed prices in the Client Rates section. For more information about validation, read About Invoiced Rates Validation.

When configured, all approved invoices are combined into one file. This can be done once a day, a week, or a month. The file is then sent to your company's accounting department for payment. All invoices included in that file are transferred invoices.
In Service Automation, transferred invoices are marked with a special icon that is displayed both on the Invoices List and on the invoice details page. Use the tabs below to see where to look for this icon on the mentioned pages.
