Reconcile, or balance, an order by adding adjustment items and comments to the order, as appropriate.

Reconcile charges for a non-Ariba Buyer order in the same way, but because there is no associated Ariba order number, no line item information is displayed.

1. Add one or more adjustments:
• Select an adjustment type, or category, such as Sales Tax, to indicate the reason for the charge discrepancy.
• Enter an adjustment amount (positive or negative) associated with the adjustment type.
• Enter a comment to describe the adjustment.
• Select an account associated with the adjustment amount.
• Click Add to add the adjustment line item. You can add multiple lines (each with a different adjustment type, amount, and so on), to account for the difference (shown in bold). As you add adjustments, Ariba Buyer displays the difference between the total charged and your adjustment amounts.
2. Review related information as necessary:
• Click the Approval Flow, Charges, or History tabs
• Click Edit to edit an adjustment line item that contains invalid fields.
• Click Detail to view line item details.
3. When you're done adding adjustments, click Update Total to update the total adjustments amount.
• To remove or copy an adjustment, click the adjustments check box and then click Delete or Copy. Remember to update again the total adjustments amount.
4. Enter comments about the reconciliation. Click Add Attachment to include an attachment file with the comments.
5. Click Submit to submit the reconciliation for approval, or Exit to complete and submit the reconciliation at a later time.
