Purchase order - Invoice variation approval

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 207

Hi All,

I've created a PO with one line, I then generated the product receipt and went to invoice. On the invoice I needed to increase the quantity of the line from 10 - 18. Doing this caused a variance but in AP Parameters, we have enabled invoice matching validation and set 'Post invoice with discrepancies' to require approval. In the Matching details, the discrepancy has been set as Yes - 'Approve posting with matching discrepancy.' The approval for the discrepancy has been recorded and this is present on the vendor invoice header. 

However, on posting, I'm facing the error 'Invoice X: item x invoice quantity is greater than the quantity matched to product receipts' and the posting is cancelled.

Has anyone encountered this?

Thanks in advance!

    Hello James Mc,

    There seem to be a number of validation and over/underdelivery settings hitting in here.

    Why don't you simply post a product receipt for the remaining 8 pcs assuming that you have received them.

    If this is done then the invoice posting should not be a problem.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Thanks Ludwig,

    Any idea specifically what settings could be causing this?

    Thanks,

    James

    For further context, I can approve Price matching errors, it appears to be purely totals related.

    I also was able to add a new line to a PO Invoice and approve the discrepancy of the line being added.

    Hi James Mc,

    Good to hear that you found a 'workaround' but the question remains whether you received the additional 8 pcs.

    Approving those matching errors will allow you posting but distort item cost prices.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
