Venkatesh,


Option 'Allow Final Matching' will allows you to check the final match check box in Payable distributions while matching a PO with an invoice.
By selecting the final match check box in invoice the Po will be closed and will not allow the other invoices to match with this PO.

Allow distribution level match allows us to match a PO with distribution level matching.

Allow Matching account override : While matching a PO with an invoice the item code combination in invoice distribution will be taken from PO distribution charge account. If Allow Matching account override is checked, it will allows us to change the defaulted code combination in invoice distribution.

Transfer PO Descriptive flexfield information: While matching the an invoice with PO, the descriptive field information captured in PO will be transferred.

And there is no impact on 2 way,3way,4 way matching by selecting the above options.

Please let me know for any further queries.

In purchasing Setup > Organizations > Purchasing Options > Default (T) you can set the following Match Approval Levels, while AP options are described above.

Two-Way (2 way): Purchase order and invoice quantities must match within tolerance before the corresponding invoice can be paid.

Three-Way (3 way): Purchase order, receipt, and invoice quantities must match within tolerance before the corresponding invoice can be paid.

Four-Way (4 way): Purchase order, receipt, inspection, and invoice quantities must match within tolerance before the corresponding invoice can be paid.

Thanks

Hi,
Here is the explanation of the matching options in the Payable option window.

<font color="blue"><b>Allow Final Matching</b>.</font id="blue"> Enable this option to allow final matching of purchase order matched invoices. You can indicate a final match when you match an invoice to a purchase order during invoice entry or when you adjust a matched invoice distribution. You cannot final match when you match invoices to receipts.

<font color="red">Attention:</font id="red"> If you final match to a purchase order, any subsequent invoices matched to the purchase order will be placed on hold, and you cannot manually release the hold.

<font color="blue"><b>Allow Distribution Level Matching.</b></font id="blue"> Enable this option if you want to allow matching to purchase order distributions. If you enable this option, you can match an invoice to one or more purchase order distributions. If you do not enable this option, Payables only allows you to match an invoice to a purchase order shipment.

<font color="blue"><b>Allow Matching Account Override. </b> </font id="blue"> Enable this option if you want to allow override of the account for an invoice distribution created from matching to a purchase order. You can override the account for a matched invoice distribution in the Distributions window of the Invoice Workbench, or on any imported invoices. You cannot override the account for a matched invoice distribution if you use encumbrance accounting, or perpetual receipt accrual. In addition, you cannot override the account if the purchase order is projects related and the item destination for the purchase order distribution is Inventory.

<font color="blue"><b>Transfer PO Descriptive Flexfield Information.</b> </font id="blue"> Enable this option if you want Payables to automatically transfer the descriptive flexfield information from the purchase order distribution to the invoice distribution when you match an invoice to a purchase order. If you enable this option, make sure that the flexfield structure is the same for purchase order distributions and invoice distributions.
