Prevent Payment Errors with Basware’s New Delivery Note Validation Rule

Written by Sanna Haaman | Jun 13, 2026 9:11:34 AM

Feature Overview Catch potential matching errors before they lead to incorrect payments. We are introducing a new validation rule that alerts you when the delivery note number on an invoice line does not match the goods receipt it has been matched to.

Why it matters A mismatched delivery note number can be a sign that an invoice line has been matched to the wrong goods receipt. With this validation in place, you can identify and correct these situations early — reducing payment errors and supporting accurate audit trails.

What's New You now get clear, actionable visibility into delivery note number mismatches:

  • Line-level alerts: Mismatches are flagged directly on the affected invoice line, in Matching Results, and in the user message bar.
  • Flexible configuration: You can choose whether the rule triggers a warning or an error. Either way, it never blocks association.
  • Manual review routing: You can configure invoices that fail this validation to be routed to manual processing for human review.
