Invoice Tolerance

I am trying to set invoice tolerance limits for price variance in both value and percentage terms. I did config for it in OMR6 but it doesnt block the invoice.
Is there some place else also where we can set the tolerance limits.
Thanks

Hi,
OMR6 maintainace define whether to allow posting or not it will block the invoice. To do so go to path SPRO>Materials Management>Logistics Invoice Verification>Invoice BlockI>tem Amount Check>Activate Item Amount Check and
select Check item amount.
now it block invoice.

Invoice Tolerance Check at Invoice Header Level

Hi Experts,
Can you advise on this query please?
We would like to be able to check for this scenario. Where the Invoice exceeds the GR by 5% or $50 we want to have this invoice blocked so that it cannot be posted in MIRO. We want to stop the users posting it in MIRO rather than allowing it to post and then blocking for payment.
The indivdiual price tolerances such as PP or PS will not work for us because these tolerances check at item level. Our PO's can have multiple line items so in total these can add up to more than $50 depending on the value of the line item.
So we ant to be able to apply the 5% or $50 limit to the overall invoice.
The BD small differences checks (we believe) at the invoice level. However, it only allows an absolute value to be specified and does not seem to allow both a value and a percentage to be specified.
Is there a way to apply the 5% or $50 at overall invoice level?
If not, is BD the correct tolerence to use to block for the $50 value at overall invoice level?
If we use the BD, must we then blank out the other tolerances so as to avoid these coming into effect and overrding the effective $50 limit for the overall invoice if the individual line items totoal to more than $50.
Appreciate your advice on how we can achieve this 5% or $50 to apply to the overall invoice.
Thanks and regards
M. Ryan.

Hi Michael,
Just wondered if you managed to find out how to set up an invoice tolerance at header level ? I have a similar requirement and wondered if this can be done. It seems the tolerances are all at item level (except for the small difference as you mentioned).

Invoice Tolerance Not Working for Percent

Hello - I have searched and couldn't find another user with the same issue. The invoice tolerance levels are set at $250 or 2.50%. When I go to test the 2.50% level, I enter an amount that is over the limit by a few pennies. It did not trigger. But if I go above the 2.50% by, say, $50, it does trigger the 2.50% tolerance limit. Does anybody know why the percentage limit does not trigger when it is over the limit by a few pennies, but does when it is $50 over the limit?
Thanks,

Invoice Tolerance - System Level

Hi
I've been looking at setting invoice tolerances to block invoices outside set limits.
I am aware I can create invoice tolerance and set these at vendor level but to make maintenance of this simple can you set invoice tolerances at system level i.e. one tolerance rate that applies to all invoices recieved?
Many Thanks for you help.
Chris

Invoice tolerance check at company code level

Hi! I know in SRM, the tolerance check for invoice is set up and assigned to a tolerance group which is then assigned to the user attribute. In theory, the tolerance setting should match that of ECC as it does not make sense to meet the tolerance requirement in SRM and then subsequently get block in ECC. However, it is common in ECC that we maintain different tolerance value for different company codes. Is there a way to do the same in SRM? My guess at the moment is that we will have to 'copy' the check in ECC to SRM rather than relying on the tolerance checks in SRM. Am I right to say that? What is the best practice in such situation?
Appreicate you sharing your experience in this.
Cheers!
SF

Hi. I think the only way to do this is to set the tolerance to 999% via config and PPOMA and assign to all users. This means the standard tolerance check does not apply.
Then use the BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI to read in whatever tolerances you want based on whatever parameters, and issue an error on screen if the tolerance is exceeded. You can easily RFC into R/3 to get the tolerances from table T169G.

Dave.

Invoice Tolerance setting

Hi,
In configuration settings,we can set tolerance limit for invoices either on percentage basis or Absolute.
SPRO>MM>Logistics Invoice verificatio>Invoice block>Set tolerance limits.
Question:Is it possible to set tolerance based on invoice value range?E.g.
1) Invoice upto $100--Flat tolerance of 5$.
2) Invoices between $101-1000----Tolerance of 5%
3) Invoices> $1000---- Tolerances upto $50
If we can't set the bandings as above how much flexibility have we got?

Hi Charlie,
Thanks for reply.
I can't set tolerance as 5% because in this case third condition is not satisfied i.e.if Invoice value> 1000$---tolereance upto 50$.
E.g. If Invoice value=20000,than 5%=1000$,while system should allow upto 50$ max.

Invoice Tolerance variance PP not working for lower limit

I am working in ECC 6.0 environment. I had configured tolerance variance PP to check MIRO value with GR Value. I had maintained upper and lower tolerance limits equal to 1000/- and had set messages M8082 and M8084 to error to stop invoice activity if invoice value is not within interval specified by tolerance variance.
I had posted a GRN with value 5000/-. Now, at time of MIRO ---
1) If i change MIRO value more than 6000/-, error message M8082 is there, which is correct.
2) But, if i decrease MIRO value by 500/- (which is within lower limit of variance), error message M8084 is there which should not be there until MIRO value will be reduced by more than 1000/-.
Kindly resolve this issue asap.

Hi !
Please note the following:
The system will check the lower tolerance limit but an invoice will
never be blocked if the LOWER limit is exceeded. The system will only
display a warning message. In the standard system invoices will only be
blocked if the UPPER limit is exceeded because normally one wants to
prevent to pay more than expected.
In SAP Library: MM-Invoice with Variances-Tolerances you will also
find the following explanation:
Variances are allowed within predefined tolerance limits. If a varianc
exceeds a tolerance limit, however, the system issues a message
informing the user. If an upper limit (except with BD and VP) is
exceeded, the invoice is blocked for payment when you post it. You mus
then release the invoice in a separate step. If the tolerance limit fo
BD is exceeded, the system cannot post the invoice."
The system will check the lower limit but an invoice will never
be blocked if the lower limit is exceeded. The system will only
display a warning message. In the standard system invoices will only b
blocked if the upper limit is exceeded because normally one
wants to prevent to pay more than expected.

Need Setting for Invoice Tolerance

Hi
Can any body suggest for the requirement below here with.
I want Invoice Qty should n't be more than P.O Qty.
I am trying for message "087 " Invoice quantity greater than PO quantity (item without GR)
system is not checking the tolerance.
Regards
Sunami

The tolerance keys compare only the invoiced quantity with the quantity delivered but not purchase order with the quantity of
the invoice.
If you expect a goods receipt but you have not receipt any goods yet there is no tolerance key which compares the quantity of the purchase order with the quantity of the invoice.
Example:
If you would post the invoice reference to the PO and with quantity = 100 (more than GR quantity) before posting others GR DOCs, but would the invoice blocked for payment and would release it using TXN MRBR after posting others GR DOCs (GR quantity = invoiced quantity), you can change the message type for M8 081 from 'E'(error) as 'W'(warning).
If you would post the invoice reference to the PO and with quantity = 100 (more than GR quantity) before posting others GR DOCs, but would the invoice not blocked for payment, you can de-activate the tolerance check of T-key 'DQ' via setting 'Do not check' as 'X'.
If you want not only GR quantity, but also the PO quantity, to be incl. in the tolerance check within MM-invoice process,please review the note 786810.
Look to SAP Note 786810
Reason and Prerequisites
The problem is due to the system design.
Solution
If you want the amounts and quantities for the purchase order items to be included in the tolerance check, you can use a customer enhancement (BADI) in the 'MRM_BADI_INVOICE_CHECK' function module to run the check on price and quantity variances based on the amounts and quantities from the purchase order item

Invoice Tolerance Issue / Tax Issue

Hi ,
if a invoice is posted with amount variation and if the variation is within the tolerance limits, then SAP generates two lines to be posted, the first line is the actual amount on PO and the other line contains the difference amount.
we want to stop applying tax on the second line, and post it to a separate GL account . is that possible , if so how can this funcationality be acheived.

That's probably a config issue. You should talk to your business analyst.

Small differences [ BD key invoice tolerances ] related issue

Hi ,
Is it possible to Book Small differences during Invoice Posting to original expense account & concerned cost object automatically, all the time.
It sounds bit weird , but is it possible.
Can anyone help?
Thanx ,
Prasad

Hi,
Objective here is to post differences which are too small to investigate, so system posts an additional line during invoice verification either to debit or credit the small difference account

Invoice Verification (LIV) - Vendor specific Tolerance

Hi Friends ,
Could some one jelp me to understand the following query
1.For company code "XXXX" I have configured invoice tolerance limit ( PP- Price variance) 10 % upper limit. For the same company code XXX I have created Vendor specific tolerance group as 20% upper limit and assigned to a vendor in vendor master. Now which one system will take . I guess it should be Vendor specific tolerance ?
2. In Point one , while creating vendor specific tolerance group , I have not configured anything for Lower limit . But in general tolerance I have configured ( PP- Price variance) Lower limit as 10%. If the invoice value goes below 10% for a vendor for whom we have assigned tolerance group in vendor master , how the system will behave. Will system take lower limit from general tolerance and block the invoice ? or it will not block as there is no lower limit in vendor specific tolerance group?
Pls help
Deva

Hi
as far as my understanding goes vendor tolerance and tolerance limits are different.
When you specify vendor tolerance limits and attach tolerance group to vendor master, then system issues a warning/error message at time of posting invoice about the difference. If tolerance is with in limits system allows you to process invoice otherwise not.
On otherhand tolerance limits like PP specified in OMR6 transaction are used for invoice blocking. If invoiced value exceeds the tolerance limits specified it will block IV for payment but will not stop user from processing IV.
Thanks

Invoice Verification Tolerances

Hi,
When the vendor invoices are matched with Purchase Orders and goods receipt notes at the time of invoice verification.At the time of invoice matching process it was found that, invoices can be processed for values which are higher than the product of Purchase
How can we get out of this problem?
Regards

Hi,
   You can maintain the invoice tolerances in MM module. When u enter the invoice values , system will the prices or quantity with the PO level. If it exceeds the tolerance , system will block the invoice. The invoices are blocked for payment.
   Then some authorised person should manually release for invoices. This will give a better control . Hope this helps.
    Assign points as way of thanks.
Thanks

Invoice price variance

Hi gurus,
Can anybody please let me know where to look for the settings for invoice price variance. The PO was created for material A for 26.01 USD for 1EA for 6EA. Therefore the GR amount is 156.06 USD (26.016). We received the invoice for 48.41 USD for 1 EA, therefore the total is 290.46 for 6EA (48.416). accounting have blocked the invoice. Where can we check in the system for the invoice tolerances so that it explains why the invoice is blocked. I also want to know whether the invoice was blocked manully or system atuomatically did it? Now how can accounting correct this anamoly?
Thanks
Anusha

I guess your invoice has automatically been blocked for payment because either the upper absolute or the percentage limit has been exceeded by the amount specified in customizing for key PP
Go to OMR6, key PP and check the settings
Accounting can release the invoice for payment through Tcode MRBR
