Tolerance Keys BR & BW

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can anyone please explain me the use of Invoice Blocking Tolerance Keys BR & BW?

Will be a great help if you can send me the link of any material on these tolerance keys. In the standard documents on tolerance keys, nothing explained about BR & BW.

BW- Percentage OPUn variance (IR before GR)

BR- Percentage OPUn variance (GR before IR)

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

These tolelerance keys will be used when there exists a differrance in the Order Unit and its Order price unit.suppose if the PO is ordered for 10kg and if there exists price for 1 pc.( for this to happen a valid conversion need to be there in mmr).

If this is the case and if the GR is done before the IR, BR- Percentage OPUn variance will come into.

If IR is done before GR ,BW- Percentage OPUn variance (IR before GR) , will come into.

1.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.

Ex: for the above example given :if invoice is done before GR and in PC for say 10pc(for a PO ordered for 10kg)/ qty invoiced in PO units ....say KG ......( if PO is for 10kg at 1RS per PC privided 1.5kG=1PC and for this PO it will be 1kg = 1/1.5 pc and for 10KG = 10/1.5 = 6.66666PC approx ,and invoice is for 6 pc at 6 RS.)

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.

I have tried to explan hope this may clear your doubt.

Hello Ashok,

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.

Example:

PO 100 KG (order unit) -> 1 PC (order price unit)

Invoice 80 KG -> 1 PC

1PC / 80 KG 1 PC / 100 KG (base)

80% 100 %

-> this means 20% variance

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.

Hope this clears

Hi Arshad,

Thanks for your reply. As far as I know,

quantity ordered in order price quantity units -> taken from PO

quantity ordered in order units -> taken from PO

quantity invoiced in order units -> taken from invoice document

goods receipt quantity in order units -> taken from material document

From where the following two data are taken and how/when is it captured in SAP:

quantity invoiced in order price quantity units

goods receipt quantity in order price quantity units
