  3. Use the displayed action or read the current values without altering unrelated data.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • Purchase-invoice status changes require the dedicated invoice status capability.
  • Payment labels include Unpaid, Partially paid and Paid.
  • Reports require purchase_reports view capability.
  • Figures depend on stored currency/rate, status and date values; reconcile against source records.

Expected result and verification

  • The supported run the purchase-invoice report flow completes without bypassing permission or validation checks.
  • The resulting record, setting, status, file, delivery event or external response is visible from the relevant workspace.
  • Unexpected validation, provider or linked-record errors are investigated before retrying.

Security, privacy and operational checks

  • Apply least privilege to purchasing, vendor, invoice, payment, return, contract and report permissions.
  • Verify vendor identity, bank/payment details, tax, currency, totals and approvals before creating financial commitments.
  • Treat public links, signatures, portal files, attachments and exported reports as controlled business records.
  • Test settings and automated jobs with controlled records before production-wide use.
