An invoice has entered the reconciliation process, controlled by the automatic reconciliation processor.

Ariba Buyer creates an Invoice Reconciliation (IR) document to track the details of the invoice and its associated purchase orders and receipts, and to list any exceptions found. The initial status of the IR document is Reconciling or Approving depending on the exceptions found (if any).

The Reconciling status applies until all items on the IR document are reconciled and approved (the status then changes to Reconciled).
