Setting up an International vendor from an inbox document
If an IBAN # is detected on an inbox document by our Intelligent Virtual Assistant (IVA), it can be used to setup an International vendor for International wires, if the vendor is not already setup.
IBAN is only detected if:
- The currency on the document matches the currency for the vendor
- The vendor is currently set to offline payments only, not setup for wires
- Only one IBAN is detected on the document
- The IBAN corresponds to a bank when searched
When you click "Review and Save" on an inbox document, if an IBAN is detected, you'll see a banner in the Bill Summary section with the associated bank information.
Click Add it if the bank information is correct. If it is not, click the x to close the banner.
