2. Search the purchase order number to be reviewed and approved. 
3. The purchase order will have an invoice status as AP (Pending Approval by Procurement). The Procurement department will need to review the invoice and approve as needed.
   
   
4. Once the procurement department approves it, the system will show a message confirming the update was successful and the invoice status will be updated to AA (Pending Approval for Accounting). 
5. The Accounting department will have to review the invoice and approve or return it to Procurement if needed.The system will have three options in the Actions column: Approve Payment, Return to Procurement and Print.
   
   
6. Once the Accounting department approves the invoice, the system will change the status to A (Approved). This is the last step and it means the invoice is ready to be paid. The Accounting department will have two options in the Actions column: Cancel Payment and Print.
