System Effects of Matching
Finalizing a receiver matching has consequences in several different areas, depending on the kind of invoice being matched. In general, some or all of the following effects can occur:
• GL postings are created.
• When receipts created in one entity are matched against invoices created in another, cross-company postings can be generated.
• If discrepancies exist between the supplier invoice and the receiver, variances can be calculated.
• Depending on the cost method in place, average costs and current costs may be updated.
• Intrastat history may be updated.
• Exchange rate variances may be calculated for foreign currency receipts.
• Taxes may be calculated based on the settings of the applicable tax rates.
