Read a multi-line invoice

Where: Approval → open a document with more than one accounting line

1. Open the document from the overview. If it has lines assigned to different groups, the lines table in document details shows multiple rows — each with its own Flow column entry naming the responsible group.

2. Find the row highlighted in blue — that is your line, the one your group is responsible for approving.
3. Scroll to the flow strip at the bottom. If other flows are running in parallel, the strip shows a label such as Multiple Flow (+2). This means your view covers your line’s path and at least two additional parallel flows are happening simultaneously for other lines.
4. The other lines and their flows are visible but not highlighted — they belong to other groups working in parallel.

Note

A colleague approving a different line on the same document sees the same invoice but with their line highlighted instead. Both approvals can happen at the same time without interfering.

Note

If you notice a discrepancy line at the bottom of the lines table showing a non-zero difference between debit and credit totals, the lines may not reconcile — this is usually a coding issue for the shared service center to fix rather than a reason to reject.
