When submitting an invoice for approval, you may receive the error 'Error submitting for approval - field failed validation'. Follow this guide to resolve the error and get your invoice moving through the intended workflow.
What does 'field failed validation' mean?
The error message 'field failed validation' means that one or more required fields on the invoice are not coded. When clicking Submit for Approval, the error message will appear and the required field that is not coded will be highlighted in red. In the example below, the Item field is not coded.
How to resolve the 'field failed validation' error?
Code a value to the empty field, and then the invoice will be able to be submitted for approval successfully. System Administrators can edit the required fields in the Coding Fields section of Settings. If the required list item is missing, please run a sync with your ERP to pull in any missing data.
