810 invoice rejections via EDI due to rounding rules
Summary
Looking to connect with a fellow Oracle Cloud organization who is also a client of GHX as their EDI provider.Content
Our goal is to reduce the volume of 810 invoice rejections we handle weekly because it requires significant time, effort, and can contribute to delinquency.
We began investigating why we were seeing penny discrepancies between the supplier invoice and the invoice detail coming via EDI. The .01 is immaterial - it is the work that is required to force those invoices into the system that creates the business case to finding a solution. Based on what we've learned, this discrepancy is typically due to decimal points and rounding. For instance, if the extended price is .0950, the distributor rounds up to .10 and the EDI invoice comes across as .09 because GHX rounds down.
