Capture Processing Other Settings Overview

The Other Settings tab has additional options for configuring capture processing. These options include:

  • Exception Email Address
  • Enable Vendor Segregation
  • Default Ledger
  • Default Policy for Upload
  • Default Policy for Email

Note

Administrators with unrestricted permissions will see additional tabs.
The image displays the Capture Processing Admin settings page with the Supplier Email Administration tab selected. It shows fields for exception email address, vendor segregation, default ledger, default upload policy, and default email policy. Save and Cancel buttons appear at the bottom.

Review the following terms to learn more about the available settings.

Exception Email Address
All supplier emails received for processing are viewed and handled by the system, including those that cannot be processed. When the system encounters an email that cannot be processed (unsupported document type; credit memos), the original email is formatted into a single PDF document that is sent as an attachment in the exception email notification to the recipient specified in Exception Email Address field.
Enable Vendor Segregation
You can filter which vendors can be assigned to an invoice, increasing vendor accuracy by reducing the number of available options. By linking multiple email addresses to a single email alias and assigning this alias to a group of vendors, only those vendors will be available during the OCR and manual verification steps. You can also set a default policy and language attribute for the system to use.
Default Ledger
If your company uses multiple ledgers, you can specify which ledger to associate with invoice outputs generated by Capture Processing. This prevents incorrect account codes from being linked to invoices.
Default Policy for Upload/Default Policy for Email
The default policy options allow the administrator to set a policy that batches inherit based on their sending method (upload or email). This policy automatically populates the Policy field for emailed and uploaded batches on the Verification page.
