By approving an Invoice Reconciliation (IR) document, you are approving all previously made reconciliations. After all the required approvers have approved the IR document, its status becomes Approved. The related payment request is automatically approved and the payment process begins.

Only administrators with specific permissions can make changes to an IR document during the approval process. For more information, see your Ariba Buyer administrator.

1. Review the IR document, including payment information (such as the amounts invoiced, reconciled, disputed, and accrued), and the list of reconciled exceptions.
2. Enter comments and add attachments, as necessary.
3. Click Submit to approve the IR document, or Cancel to return to the previous screen without approving the IR document.
