Allow Admins and/or Approvers to edit the payment amount on a vendor-submitted Payment Request before approving and paying it, without requiring the vendor to edit and resubmit the request.
Current Behavior:
When a vendor submits a Payment Request, the submitted amount cannot be adjusted by the production team. If the amount is incorrect or needs to be modified, the payment must be rejected and edited/resubmitted before it can move through approval.
Requested Behavior:
Give authorized Admins/Approvers the ability to adjust the payable amount during the review/approval process while preserving the vendor's original invoice/request amount for reference.
Use Cases:
Incorrect vendor amount: A vendor accidentally enters the wrong payment amount, and the production team needs to correct it before approval.
Withholding taxes: For Oklahoma rebate requirements, certain 1099 vendors require a 4.5% withholding tax. The vendor submits an invoice for the full amount, but the production must pay the invoice amount minus 4.5%. Requiring the vendor to submit an amount that differs from their actual invoice creates unnecessary confusion and extra steps.
Example:
Vendor submits an invoice/payment request for $1,000 → Admin applies 4.5% withholding ($45) → Approved payment amount becomes $955, while the original $1,000 invoice remains attached/visible.
Expected Outcome:
Admins/Approvers can make necessary payment adjustments internally before approval, reducing vendor back-and-forth while maintaining a clear record of the original requested amount, adjustment, and final paid amount.
