Overview
Invoices will suspend for various reasons - listed below. When an invoice suspends it will route to the fund managers associated with the Award. The Fund Manager has the option to:
- Fix the issue that is causing the suspension, such as extending the Award end date, which will clear the suspense category from the invoice and then approve it.
- Approve and override the suspension category. The suspension category will remain on the invoice.
- Cancel manually created saved Contracts & Grants Invoices (CINV) or
- Disapprove enroute CINVs created via batch.
Invoices can be manually recreated using the Contracts & Grants Invoice Lookup or the invoice will be recreated during the nightly batch.
