Document control

## Orders, invoices, credits, and allocations stay in one chain.

Receivables and payables are built around finance document lifecycles, not isolated lists: orders, invoices, credits, deposits, payments on account, approvals, and allocations stay linked.

Files

### Document evidence stays attached

Generated PDFs, uploaded files, previews, downloads, and metadata remain connected to the order, invoice, or credit note.

![Receivables and payables control visual showing approved document posting with approver and posting context](https://cdn.foresighterp.com/features/receivables-payables/core-rp-control-posting-v2.png)

Post

### Posting follows permission and approval

Posting services run after the correct approval path and preserve the approver, posting time, and finance context.

Ready for the next finance process

## Core finance data that stays useful after the transaction is done.

One document lifecycle

Sales and purchase documents move from creation to approval and posting with their status recorded.

Cleaner outstanding balances

Credits, deposits, payments, and invoice allocations stay tied to the source documents.

Stronger document control

Files, approvals, posting events, and audit history remain attached to the finance record.
