Questions about this workflow
Can an abandoned invoice be restored?
No. Coupa invoices abandoned with this action cannot be reversed, so use a precise instruction.
What if the deleted document is unrelated?
Include a document naming or reference rule so Notis can report uncertainty instead of acting.
