Previously, suppliers on Ariba Network had the ability to send an invoice with a date prior to the date on the purchase order to their buyers on Ariba Network.
Now, by enabling a new business rule in their Ariba Network accounts, buyers can specify if an invoice date must mandatorily be on or after the purchase order date. The business rule that is introduced is "Require invoice date to not be before the order date". Therefore, suppliers will now be able to send an invoice with a date prior to the date on the purchase order only if their buyers have this rule disabled in their Ariba Network accounts.
Note: This rule is not checked by default.
Suppliers can send invoices with an invoice date that is before the order date, which the buyer will need to manually reject.
Buyers can now prevent suppliers from sending invoices with an invoice date that is before the order date. This minimizes the number of invoices that the buyer has to reject due to an incorrect date.
