Original invoice missing

A company makes payment to its creditors only against original invoice. The accountant of the company has lost the original invoice. The creditor says he cannot generate another ORIGIANAL INVOICE. There is pressure from creditor on accountant to settle the outstanding amount. What is the way forward in this case? The solution given should also be acceptable by company auditors.

 

Thanks.
