Qty Blocking scenario related to GR Based Invoice Verification

[former_member1241693]

Friends,

I'm facing issues related to automatic deletion of Qty blocking reason during LIV.

Scenario is like below:

GR1 Qty = 5

IR1 Qty = 7

This invoice is posted by system but blocked for payment due to Qty variance.

Expectation is that store person should GR for balance 2 qty.

However even when this additional GR is posted, it is appearing as separate line item in PO History also and is not linked to IR1 and qty block against that invoice remains as it is there and it can not be released in MRBR automatic release functionality.

However, it's working fine in case if there is No GR Based IN activated for PO Line item.

is it a standard thing that we can't implement Qty blocking scenario ( & obviously it's auto release after reqd GR ) for GR Based IV scene.

Hi,

Yes, you are right, this is a standard settings in SAP for the IV block because of IV qty greater than GR qty. However, you can set the tolerance limit for avoiding such kind of block in Set tolerance limit under Customization of Logistics Invoice Verification. Also since you have done IV for Excess qty for the Same GR in case of GR based IV, system expects the balance 2 nos. to be delivered for the same delivery (GR).

For GR based IV, its always required to have the GR proper or same as IV...

Now in your case if you do have imbalance, then system block it for qty variance...that where it states that system check the qty variance for GR based IV also...

Now, for this variance, ofcourse either you need the another GR ...or wid the provided authorisation "accept and post" the document...

There is no other way out of it...

I think system works correctly...

Thanks PRIYA for prompt reply as usual.

You are right , system will expect additional GR for diff qty.

However issue is that even I post this additional GR for 2 qty , system is not relasing this blocked invoice automatically in MRBR automatic release function.

However, if i test same scenario for PO item NOT having GR based-IV tick...system automatically release such qty blocked invoice in MRBR once it find additional GR posted against same PO line item.

But i case of GR based IV, system is not linking this additional GR to pending qty blocked invoice.

just FYI, However invoice blcoking due to price variance is working fine ( iwth reqd PO Line item price change, system is able to release this price blocked invoice automatically in MRBR automatic release function.

I believe you might have qty blocking scenario for GR Based IV cases in your any of previous projects. if yes, pls advise me.

Thanks in advance.
