2836297 - Invoice approved but status still parked as complete

On rare occasions, it has happened that Supplier Invoices are approved, but still show in a blocked status in the 'Supplier Invoices List' App. This has been found to be due to technical errors or workflow processing errors. So even although the Supplier Invoice has been fully approved by the approving manager, it still show as Parked as Complete in the App.
