Invoicing Details • A Shipper is required to create an invoice • A Shipper can contain multiple POs from the same Ship-to location, but an invoice can only have one shipper • Therefore, to invoice multiple POs, you must add all the POs you want to the Shipper (same ship-to) • Note: If there is a discrepancy on the invoice for any PO, the entire invoice will be on hold. • The Shipper number will auto-default as the Invoice number, it is advised that you chance this to your company’s invoice number for reference and traceability. • Delete/Cancel is non-functioning. To cancel an invoice, please contact purchasing.systems@polaris.com • Filling out the Shipper does not replace the ASN submitted to LeanCor if you receive shipping instructions.
