Electronic invoicing - Retaining copies of invoices

Hello -

We are working on developing a process to receive electronic invoices via OSN (Oracle Supplier Network) via XML Gateway.  Currently we receive PDF invoices via email or standard mail and manually enter the invoice attaching the PDF.

For those invoices we would receive electronically via OSN, we would no longer receive a PDF from the supplier.  We are wondering what others have done, if anything, to continue to receive a PDF copy of the invoice and whether you still manually attach to the invoice in Oracle or store elsewhere.

Thanks in advance,
