Add Hold Reasons to Supplier Invoices and Supplier Invoice Adjustments

Add Hold Reasons to Supplier Invoices and Supplier Invoice Adjustments

Security:
Set Up: Supplier Accounts
domain in the Supplier Accounts functional area.
We enable you to specify a configurable reason code when you place a supplier invoice or supplier invoice adjustment on hold from payment.
As you configure supplier invoice hold reasons, consider:
  • Workday does not deliver any default invoice hold reasons to customer tenants. You have the flexibility to add the hold reasons that make the most sense for your business needs.
  • This field is not automatically delivered in the Find Supplier Invoices report. If you want to add the Supplier Invoice Hold Reason onto this report, copy the standard report and add the field to the report columns.
  • You can use custom validations on the supplier invoice to require a hold reason when a supplier invoice or invoice adjustment is on hold.
  1. Access the
    Maintain Supplier Invoice Hold Reasons
    task.
  2. Enter a description for the hold reason.
  3. (Optional) Select
    Inactive
    to prevent the hold reason from being used in a supplier invoice or invoice adjustment.
Workday makes these hold reasons available when you create, edit, delete, or view invoices and invoice adjustments and select the
On Hold
check box. After you select the
On Hold
check box to put the invoice or invoice adjustment on hold, you can select one of the hold reasons you created above.
