Number of invoices processed per $1,000 of purchases
This measure calculates the number of invoices processed per $1,000 of purchases. An invoice is a bill prepared by a seller of goods or services and submitted to the buyer. Generally, an invoice contains all pertinent information about the transaction including the date, price, quantity, item number, and credit terms. An invoice can be in either electronic or hard copy form. It is part of a set of Supplemental Information measures that help companies evaluate additional variables not covered elsewhere for the "process accounts payable (AP)" process.
