Open Text VIM Questions/guides?

[Former Member]

My company is has purchased Open Text to go paperless when processing invoices for AP in SAP. We are using VIM and have sap inboxes now. We are using ICC to import what has been scanned into SAP. However, we are basically trying to learn how to process invoices and such on our own. Are there any instructions or steps as to how to process an invoice or on reporting? If we don't process an invoice, it won't be parked, as the company is not using the parking function. It will go to the buyers inbox based on the rules we upload for routing invoices. However, what report can we run based on vendor number, to see what invoices are in the system and WHO are they with if they are not in the AP SAP inbox for processing?

Are there any other user guides anyone can share on different reporting or steps or tcodes?? THanks much. We are pretty much on our own to figure it out which is frustrating.

Hi Jenny,

OpenText Vendor Invoice Management is a powerful and highly customizable solution to automate the SAP AP process, therefore VIM can be either implemented as a "baseline" which means all VIM standard processes are used "as is" and your processes must adapt, or VIM will be customized to meet your organizations specific needs. In any case I would suggest you consult the formal user guide that can be found on OT's knowledge center to familiarize yourself with some of the standard functionality. To your second question, you can either use the Integrated Invoice Cockpit /n/OPT/VIM_IIC to get an overview of all workflow exceptions in your system, or /n/OPT/VIM_WP which is a more user centric function e.g. for AP processors.

Good Luck,
