One invoice for Multiple POs with different owners

[anthonyb_KT13]

We are a distributor managing several brands.

Each brand has its own team and budget.

So each brand team raise POs for marketing spend and activities with our Retailers.

The retailers often raise a single PO for us as a company, and wont raise by PO.

The issue we have is that if enable PO matching at line level on an invoice, the process of approving the invoice

does not work, as the individual assigned the invoice is not neccessarily the owner of all POs so cannot approve.

We have been informed Concur Invoice only handles multiple POs against an invoice on the basis all POs are owned by same individual.

Our case is surely not that rare.

What is the best practice to handle this case ?

Hi @anthonyb_KT13 ,

Could you please provide an example of a multiple line-item PO based on the above explanation?

• One example showing the current behavior
• One example showing the expected/desired behavior

I need example in below format:

Invoice 1: (invoice owner name)
Line 1 - PO 1 (PO1 owner name)
Line 2 - PO 2 (PO2 owner name)
Line 3 - PO 3 (PO3 owner name)

Expected workflow steps?

I can try doing some trial-and-error and see if any workarounds are possible—there’s no harm in experimenting.
