# Review an invoice

> How to open an invoice assigned to you, read its details across the review tabs, and decide how to act on it.

Reviewing an invoice means opening one of the invoices in your queue, reading what the vendor billed and what the supporting data shows, and deciding whether to approve, partially approve, reject, or send it back for more data. Use this article to find your assigned invoices and understand what each review tab tells you.

<Note>
  Acting on invoices is limited to the **consultant** role. Consultants review vendor billing on behalf of building owners. Other roles can view spending but cannot take review actions.
</Note>

## Find invoices assigned to you

Open your **Work Queue** and set the **Issue type** filter to **Invoice review** to see the invoices waiting on you. Each row shows the invoice, its property, the value at stake, and how long it's been waiting; select one to open it. See [Find invoices awaiting your review](/invoices/find-pending-invoices).

If nothing is waiting, no invoice-review items appear in your Work Queue.

## Understand invoice statuses

An invoice moves through these statuses as it is reviewed:

| Status               | What it means                                                                                                                                       |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Pending**          | Awaiting your review, in the queue.                                                                                                                 |
| **Pending Data**     | Sent back for missing information. It returns to Pending once the data arrives. See [Request more data on an invoice](/invoices/request-more-data). |
| **Approved**         | Approved in full.                                                                                                                                   |
| **Partial Approval** | Approved at a reduced, reviewed amount.                                                                                                             |
| **Rejected**         | Rejected in full.                                                                                                                                   |

Approved, Partial Approval, and Rejected are final statuses. A finalized invoice can be reopened with **Undo Final Stamp**, which returns it to Pending. See [Approve, reject, or partially approve an invoice](/invoices/invoice-review-actions).

## Read the review tabs

An open invoice has several tabs. The default tab depends on where the invoice is in its lifecycle: while an invoice is still being worked on you land on **AI Review**, and once it is finalized you land on **Overview** instead, since the decision is already made.

<Steps>
  <Step title="AI Review">
    Shows the AI's recommended decision, a confidence level, identified savings, and analysis findings tied to the contract. See [Understand the AI invoice review](/invoices/ai-invoice-review). This tab appears when AI invoice review is enabled for your account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Overview">
    Shows the invoice details — amounts, property, service provider, and line items.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Notes">
    Reviewer notes and the review history for the invoice. See [Add notes and attachments to an invoice](/invoices/notes-and-attachments).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Attachments">
    The invoice PDF and supporting documents, including linked work orders and service reports. See [Add notes and attachments to an invoice](/invoices/notes-and-attachments).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Dispute">
    Where you raise and track a dispute with the vendor over a charge. This tab appears when dispute management is enabled. See [Dispute an invoice charge](/disputes/dispute-an-invoice-charge).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Decide how to act

Once you have read the details, take an action from the toolbar at the bottom of the invoice: Approve, Reject, Partial, or Request Data. For what each action does and when to use it, see [Approve, reject, or partially approve an invoice](/invoices/invoice-review-actions).
