Match elements are the line item details that will be used in line invoice match or detail match. Line item details are the information used to compare invoice lines to receipt lines when you are performing a line invoice match or detail match.
A match class contains a hierarchy of line item details, which are the elements used in matching. A match class can contain a single element or as many as ten elements. The match class you define determines how an invoice line will be matched. You can assign a match class to one or more companies.
