Most of the docs removed were easy/basic and explained under Odoo Learn. As many docs were removed, it was necessary to restructre and rename the docs that I kept. Kept docs will be updated next. Co-authored-by: Xavier (xpl) <“xpl@odoo.com”>

Determine when to pay a vendor bill with 3-way matching
|
|
=======================================================
|
|
|
|
In some industries, you may receive a bill from a vendor before
|
|
receiving the ordered products. However, you might not want to pay it
|
|
until the products have been received.
|
|
|
|
To define whether the vendor bill should be paid or not, you can use
|
|
what we call *3-way matching*. It refers to the comparison of the
|
|
information appearing on the *Purchase Order*, the *Vendor Bill*
|
|
and the *Receipt*.
|
|
|
|
The 3-way matching helps you avoid paying incorrect or fraudulent
|
|
vendor bills.

Should I pay the vendor bill?
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
With the feature activated you will have a new *Should be paid* line
|
|
appear on the vendor bill under the *Other info* tab.
|
|
|
|
That way Odoo let's you easily know if you should pay the vendor bill or
|
|
not.

.. tip::
|
|
The status is defined automatically by Odoo. However, if you want to
|
|
define this status manually, you can tick the box Force Status and then
|
|
you will be able to set manually whether the vendor bill should be paid
|
|
or not.
