AP52.6 - Invoice Errors

**Form Purpose
Use Invoice Errors (AP52.6) to list invoices with errors that prevent them
from being interfaced. Interfacing refers to the ongoing process of bringing
in data from a source external to the Accounts Payable application, such as a
desktop application or a non-Lawson application. You can drill around on each
invoice line to find additional details about the error.

**Process at a Glance

1. Load external invoice data into the appropriate interface files.

2. Run Invoice Interface (AP520) to interface invoice information from a
non-Lawson system.

3. List invoices with errors using this form.

4. Correct records that did not interface using Invoice Interface (AP52.1),
Multiple Payment Interface (AP52.2), or Distribution Interface (AP52.3).

5. Optional. Run AP520 again to interface corrected records.
