Spanish term
casación

Accounting
EDI, e-billing
SPAIN.I know there are several previous queries for this term, however this tie it appears as a heading in a list of e-billing software strings. None of the several glossary entries from previous queries seem to fit the definition provided by the client in this context:
"Casación for us in this context means to compare the invoice with order information in order to identify differences. If documents don't contain the same information, the invoice won't be accepted..."
"Casación for us in this context means to compare the invoice with order information in order to identify differences. If documents don't contain the same information, the invoice won't be accepted..."

Thank you, Phil. I had already started answering when I realised the same answer was already there. But, yes, I guess I could have deleted it and made a reference entry instead.
