Tolerance Limits with Date and quantity

Hi Experts,
We would like to set the GR Tolerance Limits with Date and qty.
how to set the Tolerance Limits for Date and quantity..??
if we created PO 100qty and date 01-05-009.
if we receive the goods on 20-04-2009 and 50qty...
For GR .. Migo should be give error message..
where can i set this Tolerance Limit Configuration.... can u please explin me..
Thanks in Advance,
Anthyodaya .

Go to SPRO - Material Managemetn - LIV - Invoice Block - Set Tolerence limit.
USe company code and maintain a value for ST
ST: Date variance (value x days)
The system calculates for each item the product of amount * (scheduled delivery date - date invoice entered) and compares this product with the absolute upper limit defined. This allows relatively high schedule variances for invoice items for small amounts, but only small schedule variances for invoice items for large amounts.

Hai
for quantity tolerence limit u can do it while creating P O in item details-->delivery tab.
for date go to SPRO-->mm>purchasing->material master> define purchase value key>in that st.del.time var here it wil compare the dates and shows how much deviation is occuring for GR date
configure messages in SPRO-->mm>environment data--> define attributes of system messages
hope it may help u

Tolerance limits in Purchase Requisition and Purchase Order

Hi there
I see there is some new functionality in ERP6 to control the price difference between the requisition and the order. According to the documentation one needs to set up a tolerance key and then set the tolerance limits for price price variance. Thereafter one needs to set the tolerance key on the document type. I have looked in the document type and I can't seem to find any place in the config to set up or assign the tolerance key to it. Has anyone tried this and how would I assign the tolerance key to the document type?
Thanks
Vinesh

Aroop thanks for your reply.
My scenario is not the same as in 3rd party processing. In fact my scenario is make to order and even repairs of other companies machinery. Now what we are trying to achieve is lets say in the repair or in production of the customers machinery or service, MM needs to make a purchase for a part or tool etc. That in itself has a price. Meaning our purchase mm dept has to pay the vendor for the purchase made and in return we need to charge our customer for that purchase. So we would like for the price of the purchase order come in our sales order condition type as a surcharge.
We were able to fetch the price of the production order automatically thru condition type EK02.
We would like to do the same from purchase order.

Hi,
GR tolerance limits can be set based on the quantity only .It is configuration settings .
MM-->Inventory Management-->Inventory Management and physical Inventory --->set tolerance limit/
Following are the standard settings:
B1 ( order price quantity variance with error message): 50 %
B2 (order price quantity variance with warning): 20 %
VP (variance from moving average price) 25 %
In case of dates, the tolerance limit settings based on delivery date can be achived by using user exists or create a Z t.code goods receipt copying standard one & write a code to apply your logic while you do the GR.

hi,
You can do one thing...
Activate the SLED check...
BY this when the date goes earlier or late from the expected date, then system show you the messages like:
1. Earliest delivery date is DD.MM.YY..
2. Expected delivery date was DD.MM.YY...
In std sap system, the second message is already error message...so when get late delivery then it'll not be possible to maintain the GR...
For the qty varinace, activate the quantity variance either via over/under delievery tolerances..or
Via SPRO settings...
SPRO >> MM >> LIV >> Invoice block >> check for qty tolerances and make the settings as per your requirement...

DIFF BETWEEN ABSOLUTE AND PERCENTAG TOLERANCE LIMITS

Gud morning Gurus
Can anyone tell me what is the exact difference between Absolute & Percentange tolerance limits in invoices that we set in customizing.
it wud be better if any example is given.
Thanks

I WENT THRU THE URL SUGGESTED BY YOU.
BUT I WANT TO KNOW IN WHAT CASES EXACTLY THE SYSTEM CONSIDERS ABSOLUTE AND PERCENTAGE LIMITS.
ACTUALLY I READ A STATEMENT THAT THERE IS A DIFF BETWEEN ABSOLUTE AND PERCENTAGE LIMITS, SO WHAT IS IT?
IN QUANTITY VARIANCES,AMOUNT VALRIANCES ETC.
. Quantity variance: For a purchase order, the open quantity to invoice is a result of the delivered quantity and the quantity already invoiced. There is a quantity variance if the invoice quantity does not match this open quantity. At the absolute upper limit, the quantity variance is evaluated on the basis of the amount in the invoice item. This means that invoice items with a small amount result in a relatively large quantity variance, and that invoice items with a large amount result in a small variance. You can also define percentage limits for the quantity variance check, for which the system does not take account of the purchase order price.
WHAT DOES THE ABOVE STATEMENT EXACTLY MEAN?CAN U EXPLAIN UDAY...
THANKS

Maintain tolerance limits in the Tolerance key

Hi,
Could any one help me how to maintain these Tolerance limits in the Tolerance key. This is an error I receive while creating a PO.
Best Regards,
Sridhar.k

What is the Error Mesaage no you are getting??
Solution is as Follows
Set Tolerance Limits for Price Variance
In this step, you define the tolerance limits for price variances.
When processing a purchase order, the system checks whether the effective price of a PO item shows variances compared with the valuation price stored in the material master record. In addition, it checks whether the specified cash discount value is admissible.
Variances are allowed within the framework of tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, the system issues a warning or error message.
In the SAP System, the types of variance are represented by the tolerance keys. For each tolerance key, you can define percentage and value-dependent upper and lower limits per company code.
Standard settings
The standard SAP System supplied contains the following tolerance keys:
PE Price variance, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 207. This message appears if the specified effective price exceeds the predefined tolerances when compared with the material price.
SE Maximum cash discount deduction, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 231. This is a warning message, which appears when the specified cash discount percentage exceeds the predefined tolerances.
Note
You can specify whether the system message appears as a warning or error message using the menu options <b>Environment -> Define Attributes of System Messages.</b>
Activities
Maintain the tolerance limits for each tolerance key per company code

Tolerance limits on PO

Dear All,
I need to place tolerance limits on PO quantity. e.g 5 percent of the PO quantity is allowed to GRN.
how can i do that,
Thanks

Hi
The SPRO setting under Inventory Management > Good Receipt > Set tolerance key
this is at company code level. if you set this, then each and every MIGO will pass through the limit
this may have an impact on inventory inflation if MIGO is on higher side, especiallyfor A class items.
Better to set tolerence key at various level mentioned by one of Gurus so that only the particular combination will pass through the tolerance Limit. and on the other hand you will controlled inventory.
in spite of this client insist at Company code level then proceed with SPRO setting
Also check the message setting if you want to give Error message if it is exceeding the tolerence Limit.

Tolerance limits for contract

Hi all,
   Is there any possibility to maintain tolerance limits for Quantity in Quantity Contract (doc type MK),,,
ex: Quantity Contract (MK) -- target quantity = 100
      it should allow me to create release orders (Purchase orders) for 105 quantity(tolerance of +5%)

Hi,
By using Purchasing Value Key in Material Master you can control over and under deliveries.But its applicable to that material.
If Purchasing Info Record exists for that material then tolerance limit which is given in inforecord takes priority.

Tolerance limits & Number ranges

1. What is tolerance limits ? Why we need to use it ? What are the steps to configure tolerance limits ?
2. What is number ranges ? How to create number ranges ?

Hi,
IN PO tollerence limit:
When processing a purchase order, the system checks whether the effective price of a PO item shows variances compared with the valuation price stored in the material master record. In addition, it checks whether the specified cash discount value is admissible.
Variances are allowed within the framework of tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, the system issues a warning or error message.
PE Price variance, Purchasing :
Tolerance limit for system message no. 207. This message appears if the specified effective price exceeds the predefined tolerances when compared with the material price.
SE Maximum cash discount deduction, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 231. This is a warning message, which appears when the specified cash discount percentage exceeds the predefined tolerances.
MIRO Tolerence limit: OMR6
When processing an invoice, the R/3 System checks each item for variances between the invoice and the purchase order or goods receipt. The different types of variances are defined in tolerance keys.
Variances are allowed within predefined tolerance limits. If a variance 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 must then release the invoice in a separate step. If the tolerance limit for BD is breached, the system cannot post the invoice.
Note that if you set all limits for a tolerance key to Do not check, the system does not check that tolerance limit. Therefore any variance would be accepted. This does not make sense particularly in the case of the tolerance key Form small differences automatically.

Tolerance Limits - Error message: SV033

Hi Guys,
I am trying to add a new entry on the below transaction:
IMG - Material Managment - Logistics Invoice Verification - Invoice Block - Set Tolerance Limits
But I got the error message: SV033 - "Specify the key within the work area".
Does anyone know how can I procede in this case?
Thanks
Daniel

That's a pretty odd message. Are you getting it when you enter the TCode? Upon saving? I'd check OSS and create a ticket if you can't find anything.

Tolerance Limits PP

Dear All,
I have maintained tolerance limits in material master as 5% for both over and under tolerance....But the problem is even if i maintain the production order as below or over 5% still its is accepting the production order n allowing to do confirmation and goods receipts....I want to stop this....Please suggest..
Regards,
Pawan Shetty

Pawan,
??? You want a warning every time there is a confirmation for a quantity less than the underdelivery tolerance? That means almost every confirmation will give the user a warning. Does that really make any sense?
Underdelivery tolerance setting only produces a warning when you are setting the final confirmation for the operation.
Normally during confirmations for an order, most of the confirmations will be for substantially less than the goal quantity. Only the final few confirmations bring the total confirmed quantity to something 'close' to the goal quantity.

Hi
tolerance limits for price variancesin Purchase order
When processing a purchase order, the system checks whether the effective price of a PO item shows variances compared with the valuation price stored in the material master record. In addition, it checks whether the specified cash discount value is admissible.
Variances are allowed within the framework of tolerance limits. If a variance exceeds a tolerance limit, the system issues a warning or error message.
In the SAP System, the types of variance are represented by the tolerance keys. For each tolerance key, you can define percentage and value-dependent upper and lower limits per company code.
Standard settings
The standard SAP System supplied contains the following tolerance keys:
PE Price variance, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 207. This message appears if the specified effective price exceeds the predefined tolerances when compared with the material price.
SE Maximum cash discount deduction, Purchasing
Tolerance limit for system message no. 231. This is a warning message, which appears when the specified cash discount percentage exceeds the predefined tolerances.
Note
You can specify whether the system message appears as a warning or error message using the menu options Environment -> Define Attributes of System Messages.
For Invoices specify the tolerance limits for each tolerance key for each company code.
When processing an invoice, the R/3 System checks each item for variances between the invoice and the purchase order or goods receipt. The different types of variances are defined in tolerance keys.
The system uses the following tolerance keys to check for variances:
AN: Amount for item without order reference
If you activate the item amount check, the system checks every line item in an invoice with no order reference against the absolute upper limit defined.
AP: Amount for item with order reference
If you activate the item amount check, the system checks specific line items in an invoice with order reference against the absolute upper limit defined. Which invoice items are checked depends on how you configure the item amount check.
BD: Form small differences automatically
The system checks the balance of the invoice against the absolute upper limit defined. If the upper limit is not exceeded, the system automatically creates a posting line called Expense/Income from Small Differences, making the balance zero and allowing the system to post the document.
BR: Percentage OPUn variance (IR before GR)
The system calculates the percentage variance between the following ratios: quantity invoiced in order price quantity units : quantity invoiced in order units and quantity ordered in order price quantity units : quantity ordered in order units. The system compares the variance with the upper and lower percentage tolerance limits.
BW: Percentage OPUn variance (GR before IR)
The system calculates the percentage variance between the following ratios: quantity invoiced in order price quantity units: quantity invoiced in order units and goods receipt quantity in order price quantity units : goods receipt quantity in order units. The system compares the variance with the upper and lower percentage limits defined.
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 costs.
DW: Quantity variance when GR quantity = zero
If a goods receipt is defined for an order item but none has as yet been posted, the system multiplies the net order price by (quantity invoiced + total quantity invoiced so far).
The system then compares the outcome with the absolute upper tolerance limit defined.
If you have not maintained tolerance key DW for your company code, the system blocks an invoice for which no goods receipt has been posted yet. If you want to prevent this block, then set the tolerance limits for your company code for tolerance key DW to Do not check.
KW: Variance from condition value
The system calculates the amount by which each delivery costs item varies from the product of quantity invoiced * planned delivery costs/ planned quantity. It compares the variance with the upper and lower limits defined (absolute limits and percentage limits).
LA: Amount of blanket purchase order
The system calculates the sum of the value invoiced so far for the order item and the value of the current invoice and compares it with the value limit of the purchase order. It then compares the difference with the upper percentage and absolute tolerances defined.
LD: Blanket purchase order time limit exceeded
The system determines the number of days by which the invoice is outside the planned time interval. If the posting date of the invoice is before the validity period, the system calculates the number of days between the posting date and the start of the validity period. If the posting date of the invoice is after the validity period, the system calculates the number of days between the posting date and the end of the validity period. The system compares the number of days with the with the absolute upper limit defined.
PP: Price variance
The system determines by how much each invoice item varies from the product of quantity invoiced * order price. It then compares the variance with the upper and lower limits defined (absolute limits and percentage limits).
When posting a subsequent debit/credit, the system first checks if a price check has been defined for subsequent debits/credits. If so, the system calculates the difference between (value of subsequent debit/credit + value invoiced so far) / quantity invoiced so far * quantity to be debited/credited and the product of the quantity to be debited/credited * order price and compares this with the upper and lower tolerance limits (absolute limits and percentage limits).
PS: Price variance: estimated price
If the price in an order item is marked as an estimated price, for this item, the system calculates the difference between the invoice value and the product of quantity invoiced * order price and compares the variance with the upper and lower tolerance limits defined (absolute limits and percentage limits).
When posting a subsequent debit/credit, the system first checks whether a price check has been defined for subsequent debits/credits, If so, the system calculates the difference between (value of subsequent debit/credit + value invoiced so far) / quantity invoiced so far * quantity to be debited/credited and the product quantity to be debited/credited * order price. It then compares the variance with the upper and lower tolerance limits defined (absolute limits and percentage limits).
ST: Date variance (value x days)
The system calculates for each item the product of amount * (scheduled delivery date - date invoice entered) and compares this product with the absolute upper limit defined. This allows relatively high schedule variances for invoice items for small amounts, but only small schedule variances for invoice items for large amounts.
VP: Moving average price variance
When a stock posting line is created as a result of an invoice item, the system calculates the new moving average price that results from the posting. It compares the percentage variance of the new moving average price to the old price using the percentage tolerance limits defined.
Variances are allowed within predefined tolerance limits. If a variance 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 must then release the invoice in a separate step. If the tolerance limit for BD is breached, the system cannot post the invoice.
Note that if you set all limits for a tolerance key to Do not check, the system does not check that tolerance limit. Therefore any variance would be accepted. This does not make sense particularly in the case of the tolerance key Form small differences automatically.
Thanks & Regards
Kishore
