Navigating Challenges in Your Invoice Processing System
β οΈ Cannot access the Yardi PayScan portal
Cause: Incorrect login credentials, browser compatibility issues, or an expired session.
Solution: We know being locked out is stressful. First, double-check your YSI email address ([email protected]) and password. If you've forgotten your password, use the 'Forgot password?' link on the login page. Ensure your web browser is up-to-date and that JavaScript is enabled for optimal performance. If these steps don't resolve the issue, your system administrator or Yardi support can provide further assistance with your digital account.
β οΈ Invoices are not appearing in my approval workflow
Cause: Invoices may not have been fully processed, or there could be a misconfiguration in your workflow routing rules.
Solution: To find your invoices, confirm they have been successfully scanned or imported into the system. Verify with your accounting team that the workflow steps and approval rules within Yardi Voyager are correctly set up for your role and property. Sometimes, a simple refresh of your dashboard can update the view.
