📥 Invoice Details & Submission

Before submitting for approval or syncing, review invoice metadata like vendor name and amount, and link related documents for accuracy.

🧾 Details Section

This section shows key invoice metadata extracted or entered for review:

Field

Description

Vendor

The company that issued the invoice (e.g., 84 Lumber Company).

Invoice Number

Unique invoice identifier (e.g., 2717-912114).

Invoice Date

The date listed on the invoice (e.g., April 15th, 2025).

Uploader

Shows whether the invoice was uploaded manually or by inBuild’s AI.

Total Amount

The total dollar amount on the invoice.

Total amount calculated from all line items in the "This Period" column. This represents the total value being invoiced.

Approved Amount

Amount reviewed or approved—can match the invoice total or differ slightly.

AI-predicted total amount based on the invoice document. This number is used as a general guideline for the total amount of the invoice. If the totals do not match, you can still sync this invoice, but we will warn you.

ℹ️ Hover over the info icons (ⓘ) to see tooltips with additional clarification.
