# Create an invoice line manually

Create invoice lines manually for an invoice when the invoice automation process doesn't capture this information from an incoming invoice.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_ap\_apm.accounts\_payable\_specialist or sn\_ap\_apm.admin

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **All** > **Accounts Payable Operations** > **Accounts Payable Workspace**.

2.  Navigate to **Lists** > **Invoices** > **All Open Invoices**.

3.  In the Number column, select the link to the invoice that you want to create an invoice line for.

4.  Select the **Invoice lines** tab and select **New.**

5.  On the Create New Invoice Line form, fill in the fields.

    For a description of the field values, see [Create New Invoice Line form](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/source-to-pay-operations/accounts-payable-operations/create-invoice-line-form.md).

-   **[Invoice rejection modes](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/source-to-pay-operations/accounts-payable-operations/invoice-rejection-modes.md)**  
Invoice rejection modes control how Accounts Payable Operations processes exceptions, automatically by system or manual review.
-   **[Reject an invoice manually](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/source-to-pay-operations/accounts-payable-operations/reject-an-invoice-manually.md)**  
Review exceptions flagged for manual rejection and reject an invoice from the invoice case when AP specialist confirmation is required.
-   **[Credit memo](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/source-to-pay-operations/accounts-payable-operations/invoice-type-credit-memo.md)**  
Credit memo invoices in Accounts Payable Operations represent reductions or offsets in amounts payable to suppliers and can be created for both PO and Non-PO invoices, with the system identifying them based on specific indicators such as negative amounts.
