Approving an Invoice

by Michael Nadeau Updated on

The option to approve an invoice only appears if you are assigned as a reviewer and it is your turn to review. To quickly check for invoices pending your review, click Invoices in the My Items section of your dashboard.

To open an invoice, click the hyperlinked invoice number on the My Invoices tab.

Review the invoice to verify it is ready for approval. Check the Invoice Verification tab and other sections, and make any required adjustments to line items or the total. When ready, click the Approve button in the top-right corner of the invoice details page.

Approving an invoice will move the invoice to the next assigned reviewer's queue or end the review cycle if no other reviewers are assigned. If you need to revert the invoice status to Received for additional adjustments or further review, click the Unapprove button in the top-right corner of the invoice details page. Reverting the status to Received returns the invoice to the review queue.

Marking an Invoice as Paid Outside the System

To mark an invoice as "Paid" in Unity if it was paid outside the system, you can use the Invoice Actions menu in the top-right and select Mark Paid to move approved invoices to the Paid status.
