Note This topic describes Control Center settings. Learn about Admin Center settings here.

Use these settings to define the Process control service. The services and settings available can vary, depending on your role and which Services node you selected in the administration tree:

Received documents
  • Force manual document separation on all batches - When selected, all new batches must be separated manually before they can be processed. This setting is only visible if Separation services are enabled.
  • Start processing automatically - When selected, new documents begin processing as soon as they are received.
Data verification
  • Never - Extracted invoices are sent directly to the target system without verification.
  • On field error - Only invoices with field errors must be verified. Invoices without validation errors are sent directly to the target system.
  • Always -  All invoices must be verified, regardless of field status, except for invoices from suppliers that have been selected to bypass verification.
    Note Extracted data is rendered in XML format.
Perform registration step This setting is only visible on some target systems when Workflow services are enabled.

Determines whether invoices must be registered in the target system before starting the workflow.

It can be helpful to skip registration, if your target system does not require registration, because it decreases calls to the target system and prevents documents from entering correction workflows prematurely due to validation errors in the target system.

Tip You cannot change the buyer while approving an invoice if this setting is selected.
Keep batch together When selected, invoices are not sent to the target system until all of the invoices in the batch are complete. If this setting is not selected, each invoice is sent to the target system as soon as it is ready, without waiting for the rest of the batch. Office users can override this setting on individual batches by selecting one ore more batches in the document list view and clicking .
