Hi,
My client generally assumes responsibility for goods shipped to them from their direct vendors. In case of minor quantity variances (below $250), they would like for the PO invoices to process straight through.
Example:
PO with multiple line items; for line item 10, they ordered 200 EA at $ 10/EA. Per the GR they have received 180 EA (since one carton was lost in transit), but since the quantity variance is below $250 they would like to simply apply and pay the invoice.
We have looked at different options so far:
Tolerance key "DQ" for payment blocks due to quantity variance. There are two issues with this approach:
The quantity variance applies to individual line items, not the entire invoice
The logic can not be restricted to direct vendors, but applies per company code
"Vendor-Specific Tolerances" (LFB1-TOGRR)
While this functionality can be vendor specific, it only compares the total of the invoice line items against the invoice header amount, so that does not appear to match our scenario (typically that difference would be minimal if any)
Any suggestions?
Regards
