DQ tolerance key

Question

I have maintained the DQ tolerance key in CUSTOMIZING in the foll path : Materials management ----> Logistics Invoice verification -----> Invoice Block ------> Set Tolerance limits.
For DQ, I have set 30 INR as the upper limit ( absolute value )
Documentation for the following tolerance key:
DQ: Exceed amount: quantity variance
If a goods receipt has been defined for an order item and a goods receipt has already been posted, the system multiplies the net order price by (quantity invoiced - (total quantity delivered - total quantity invoiced)).
If no goods receipt has been defined, the system multiplies the net order price by (quantity invoiced - (quantity ordered - total quantity invoiced)).
The system compares the outcome with the absolute upper and lower limits defined.
This allows relatively high quantity variances for invoice items for small amounts, but only small quantity variances for invoice items for larger amounts.
You can also configure percentage limits for the quantity variance check. In this case, the system calculates the percentage variance from the expected quantity, irrespective of the order price, and compares the outcome with the percentage limits configured.
The system also carries out a quantity variance check for planned delivery cost
My scenario :
Order Qty = 10 kg
Order Price = 20 INR  per 1 KG.
GR Quantity = 5 kg
Invoiced Quantity = 3 KG
Next time MIRO has to be done for remaining 2 KG. But suppose we do invoice verification for 3 Nos. ie We are performing MIRO for 1 number more than what has actually been received
So, according to the above calculation,
system will calculate  = 20 * (3 – ( 5 – 3 ) )= 20 * 1 = 20 INR. This 20 INR is less than the 30 INR maintained in Customizing. But I am still getting the error message " Quantity invoiced greater than goods receipt Quantity". Why is this so ? Can somebody provide some light into the issue ?

Hi all ;
If your customizing is correct , there might be other control like ABAP or anything else ..
Please check oss notes :
835073 - Enhancement of the tolerance checks
1853166 - Quantity too high, tolerance limit exceeded
786810 - MM IV: Tolerance check when you enter invoices
102350 - Incorrect tolerance check for small amounts
496357 - MRBR: Percentage check with quantity variance
1372102 - IMG documentation: Set Tolerance Limits
Also, you can benefit from document M8 messages for incoming invoices with tolerances .
