Document List Tabs

Export

Shows documents in Approved state that are ready to be exported to an accounting system. Accountants work primarily in this tab.

Rejected for Verification

Documents that were flagged during processing or approval for additional manual review. Requires correction and re-submission.

Bank Export

Documents included in the current or recent payment export batches.

Pending Removal

Documents that have been requested for removal but not yet permanently deleted or archived. See Pending Removal.

Published

The final archive of all fully processed, exported, and closed documents.

State Transitions

Draft → Processing → Pending Approval → Approved → Exported → Published

                       Rejected → Processing (re-submitted)

              Rejected for Verification → Processing

An Administrator can move a document backwards in the state flow if needed (e.g., from Approved back to Pending Approval for re-review).
