Symptoms

Using Payables, invoice validation is being run - the purchase order is opened and the action history is showing that it was opened by the supplier name/supplier contact.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create Purchase order using Purchasing responsibility with one line > Save > Approve Purchase order. Invoice close tolerance should be 0% and 3-way match.

2. Create an invoice in payables matching to the Purchase order.
 - Partially match to the Purchase order
 - Do not validate the invoice

3. Assign the Payables Manager to the user

4. Move back to the Purchase order and close the Purchase order at the header level.
 - The Purchase order is now partially billed and closed

5. Select Payables Responsibility
 - Run the Invoice Validation program

6. Check the Purchase order - find it is now reopened
 - confirm the action history shows the supplier as the actioner
