Abstract
Invoices for goods purchased under a pricing strategy of goods receipt base invoice verification are processed. A matching tool performs a logical three-way match between invoices, and a database tool having goods received receipts and purchase orders. A transfer tool sends the invoices and results of the three-way match to the database when a match is found.
