Sales Invoice Issue

Question

Hello all,
The case is if we are going to raise an Invoice for example of Rs. 100.50 and the amount recieved against this order is Rs. 100 the SAP would not permit us to invoice that particular order. Is there any method in SAP where we can define the provision of some amount that permit to invoice the order within that range if the payment is short. Kindly update.
Regards,

Hi
You can check in the Customer Master record, whether a Tolerance group has been assigned or not.
<b>Tolerance group for the business partner/G/L account</b>
Freely definable group code for customers and vendors, or G/L accounts. Tolerance groups are unique within a company code.Each tolerance group contains settings that affect cash discount and payment difference processing. These settings become effective during payment entry.
Define Tolerances for Customers/Vendors
In this activity you define the tolerances for customers/vendors. The tolerances are used for dealing with payment differences and residual items that may arise when payment clearing is carried out. You specify the tolerances in one or more tolerance groups and assign a tolerance group to each customer/vendor using the master record. For each tolerance group specify the following:
Tolerances, up to which payment differences arising from open item clearing can be automatically posted to expense or revenue accounts
The treatment of terms of payment for residual items if they are to be posted during clearing
Note
Ensure that you can also Define Tolerance Groups for Employees. For clearing, the lower limit from the specifications for the customer/vendor, and the specifications for the employee group are valid.
Requirements
If you want to enter fixed terms of payment for posting residual items from payment differences for a tolerance group, you have to define the terms of payment first. To do this, see Maintain Terms of Payment.
If you want to assign a dunning key to a tolerance group, you must have already defined the dunning key. To do this, see Define Dunning Keys.
Activities
1. Identify groups of customers/vendors to which identical tolerances apply.
2. Create the required tolerance groups for your customers/vendors.
3. Make sure that the required tolerance groups are assigned to the customers/vendors in the master record.
Further Notes
If you want to work with uniform tolerances for all customers/vendors in a company code, create a tolerance group with the key "blank" ( ) for the company code. In this case, you do not have to enter the tolerance group in the customer/vendor master record. You can also use a tolerance group with key "blank" ( ), if for example, you want to define lower tolerances for particular customer/vendors than others. In this case, for example, you create a tolerance group 0001 with low tolerances for the customers/vendors and then enter this tolerance group in the customer/vendor master record. All other customers/vendors automatically have the tolerance group "blank" ( ) assigned to them.
Hope this solves your problem.
