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.

Quick answer

Most likely cause
Invoice quantity exceeds the posted GR quantity.
Check first
PO history for GR and invoice quantities.
First resolution step
Reconcile invoice quantity to the actual received quantity.

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.
