Payscan Quick Reference Guide

When you receive an invoice:


1. Scan Invoice to your Payscan folder.
a. Scan all of your Single Page Invoices together in a separate PDF from your
multiple page invoices. This will allow you to select the “Single Page Invoice”
checkbox on the Scan/Import screen and Yardi will automatically insert a page
break between each invoice.
b. For multiple page invoices:
i. You can scan each one separately, then import in the same Scan/Import
batch by multi-selecting. Yardi will insert a separator page between each
PDF.
ii. You can scan them as one PDF and manually insert the separator pages in
Yardi from the Scan/Import screen.
c. For invoices received via email, save them to your PayScan folder for upload to
Payscan (no need to print/scan).

2. Go to Roles~Payscan Data Entry

3. Click on Scan/Import Invoices (Invoice Register Section of Dashboard)

4. Fill in the Batch details:


a. Click off the Single Page Invoice checkbox before you open the PDF if you want
separator pages between each page.
b. Click “Open PDFs”. Navigate to your Payscan folder and select your PDF(s),
choose “Open”.
c. The Invoices will load onto your screen. It is finished loading when the images
and separator pages show up at the top of the batch window. (Remember, it still
isn’t a batch until you import it.)
d. Choose Import Batch.
To process the invoices in your batch:
1. From the top menu in the Payscan Data Entry Role, go to Dashboards~ Invoice Register
Dashboard.

2. Fill out the filter to select only the items you wish to see. You can filter by property,
batch #, Created By, etc. (Hint: If you fill in your user code in Created By and check off
the “No Data Entered” box, it will display all of the invoices that you have created that
you haven’t begun to process.)

3. Click on Hyperlink in the Invoice Register column to Open Invoice Register


a. Complete your data entry.
b. Ensure you choose the correct Expense Type; this determines which workflow
gets assigned to the invoice.

finish saving before you press Validate.)
d. Choose your Next Step, then Choose Save Step and Next. This moves the invoice
register to the next step in the workflow; it will show up on that approvers
Workflow Dashboard to process.
Notes:
i. “Save” saves the invoice details.
ii. “Save Step and Next” saves the Workflow Step; it does not save invoice
details.

invoice”. You will have to go back to your dashboard and open the first
invoice register in the next batch.
