Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for suggesting item information for an invoice based on information in a related purchase order and/or goods receipt. Consistent with the principles of the invention, the procurement management system, upon initiation of an invoice entry, may search for a related purchase order and may determine whether any of the one or more items in the related purchase order have corresponding goods receipts. For those items in the related purchase order that are missing their expected goods receipts, the procurement management system may suggest item information obtained exclusively from the related purchase order. For those marked items that have been determined as having corresponding goods receipts, the procurement management system may obtain and verify information associated with these items from and against both the related purchase order and the items' corresponding goods receipts.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing a hierarchical display of business partners associated with a procurement-related document in a computer system. The procurement-related document may be an invoice, a purchase order, a bidding, a good receipt, a contract, or any other suitable document within the context of the particular system. A plurality of business partners associated with the procurement-related document and/or the interface may be identified. Identification of the business partners may additionally include identification of relationships between the business partners. The identified business partners may be displayed to the user. The display may show various attributes associated with the business partners and may show the business partners in a hierarchical arrangement to indicate their relationships with each other.
