Quantity invoiced greater than goods receipt quantity

MIRO warns or errors because invoiced quantity is greater than the goods-receipt quantity for a GR-based invoice-verification PO item.

Likely root causes

  1. Invoice quantity exceeds the posted GR quantity.
  2. A GR was reversed or posted to a different PO item.
  3. The PO is marked for GR-based invoice verification, so invoice quantity is checked against GR history.

What to inspect

  1. PO history for GR and invoice quantities.
  2. GR-based IV indicator on the PO item.
  3. MIGO reversals or returns affecting the received quantity.
  4. OMRM/OMR6 message and tolerance configuration.

Resolution path

  1. Reconcile invoice quantity to the actual received quantity.
  2. Post/correct the missing goods receipt only if the business event actually occurred.
  3. Correct the invoice quantity or reference if it is wrong.
  4. Do not weaken message/tolerance settings to force an unsupported invoice.
