AP: Check for duplicate invoice numbers that have been previously processed

Currently, FE does not check for duplicates unless they are run in the same batch.  But it would be helpful if FE checked for invoice numbers that have been previously processed. For example, if an invoice is processed in February I can process that same invoice in September and FE will not see it as a duplicate. Having a feature that checked for duplicates would eliminate duplicate entries.

    Hi: Not sure if you are set up like I am, but when you go into configuration under business rules, then under invoices-there is a checkbox to automatically check for duplicates and then when you go to enter the same number- it will tell you that the invoice is already generated in the system. Hope that helps.
