Key Accountabilities And Challenges

Accountable for accurate and timely transactional input validation and data entry from an invoice or service receiving document, such as a field ticket or timesheet, into an online Service Entry Sheet (SES) document in BP's SAP ERP Backbone solution. Once accepted by BP, the SES provides confirmation of the services that have been performed by a supplier. The Service Entry Sheet Releaser verifies the acceptability of an SES thoroughly and then forwards it to the responsible business User for acceptance. Under certain process guidelines, the Service Entry Sheet Releaser may accept (release) the SES on the responsible user's behalf.

• Validate the invoice against supporting documentation, e.g., field tickets, timesheets, etc, and create entry into SAP per defined process.
• Validate BP Purchase Order or Contract line items and record each service as an SES line item.

• Reject invoice in case of clear discrepancy with accurate business reasoning.
• Release the SES in the workflow for acceptance by BP.
