How to view a matched Purchase Order from a Bill

Updated today

When reviewing a Bill that has been matched to a Purchase Order, you can open the Purchase Order directly from the Bill and view both documents side-by-side. This makes it easier to compare details without switching tabs.

You can view the PO from the Bill before the Bill is matched (when a matching suggestion is shown) or after the Bill has already been matched.

  • Open the Bill request that requires your approval.

  • Scroll to the Bill to PO Matching section.

  • Click on the Purchase Order link:

In both cases, clicking the PO link opens the side-by-side comparison view:
