How to Review Invoices Without Losing Your Filters: A Workflow Fix for AP Teams

If you’ve ever filtered a list of invoices—by vendor, amount, or status—only to lose your place the second you open one, you’re not alone. AP teams lose time (and sanity) when they have to constantly backtrack just to keep reviewing a batch. That’s why Centime’s Document Viewer now keeps your filtered list static, letting you scroll through invoices in sequence without reapplying filters.

‍

This feature unlocks a smoother, faster, and more focused workflow—especially when working through high-volume reviews or vendor-specific batches.

‍

🔍 What This Feature Solves

Before this update, reviewing invoices meant opening one, losing your filtered context, and then having to recreate your list all over again. It was a broken loop—especially frustrating for controllers or AP managers tackling 40+ invoices at a time.

‍

Now? You filter once. Then flow through that exact list inside the Document Viewer—arrow by arrow, invoice by invoice.

✅ No more re-filtering
✅ No more flipping between tabs
✅ No more losing your place

‍

‍
Your filtered list becomes your scrollable navigation inside the Document Viewer

🧭 How It Works — Step-by-Step

Apply your filters in the Documents tab (by supplier, amount, invoice status, etc.)
Open any invoice from that list.
The Document Viewer now shows that filtered list as a dropdown at the top.
Use the left/right arrows to move through invoices in order.
Make edits, approvals, or status updates as needed—changes reflect in real time.
The list remains static until you close the viewer.

‍

It’s like playlist mode for invoices.

‍

💡 When This Workflow Shines

This isn’t just about convenience—it’s about enabling real productivity in high-stakes scenarios:

‍

Vendor-specific review sessions (e.g., filtering by “Acme Co.” to resolve multiple outstanding items)
Bulk invoice approvals across subsidiaries or departments
Controllers reviewing $10K+ invoices at month-end close
Batch posting for NetSuite users who need to track status changes mid-review

‍

Instead of losing mental context between invoices, users can stay locked into a single flow—making faster, more accurate decisions.

‍

⚡ Real User Feedback

“I used to keep 10 tabs open so I wouldn’t lose my filters. Now I just use the arrows and breeze through my list. Total time-saver.”
— Controller, Healthcare Company (NetSuite user)
