Taking Action on Invoices via ServiceChannel Mobile


As a facility operator, you may take action on a single invoice or multiple invoices. Via the ServiceChannel Mobile app, you can take action on invoices in two ways:

  • In the Invoice Card
  • In the Invoice Details view

Taking Action on a Single Invoice via SC Mobile


By default, all invoices are in the Open status when submitted. You can change the invoice status by taking action on it. At the bottom of each Invoice Card, you will find buttons depending on your MLI level.

The common buttons for invoices are:

  • Approve. The invoice is accepted and can move forward for payment.

    When the multi-level invoice (MLI) approval procedure is set up for your company, you can approve an invoice only within your allowed limit configured in the Admin module.


  • Reject. The invoice costs and/or details are not agreed upon. This action notifies a provider that he/she should resubmit the invoice. See Sending Notifications on Rejected Invoices.
  • Put on Hold. The invoice requires further review before being approved or rejected.
  • Return. The invoice should be returned to the previous level. For example, a director wants a facility manager to take a look at the invoice. In this case, the director can return the invoice so that a facility manager can take action on it.

    To have the ability to return invoices to the previous levels, contact your ServiceChannel representative.
