Reproducing the Issue

  4. Click OK.
  5. Go to View log and you can see the mentioned error highlighted in red.

Cause

When system does not find the Company name details (or found insufficient details) in the text file then system would search for company of the user who created the Scanned Invoice.
If system does not find the company of the user also then system throws this error.

Resolution

Ensure either:

Company name is appearing correctly in the text file as maintained in ByDesign system
or
Company is assigned to User who is uploading the Scanned invoice.
