Job Routing

 

pVault® can be configured to use Viewpoint Job Routing. This option would automatically apply the reviewers on an invoice who were identified on the Viewpoint Job Setup. These reviewers can be identified on the Job Setup in Viewpoint on either the Info tab in the Reviewer Group Invoice field or on the Reviewer tab.

Job routing can be set up to run through pVault® and the user's bridged accounting system. Job routing can also be set up to run primarily through the user's bridged accounting system.
