Hello, 

 

We face an issue towards the M19 and the M20 postings.

 

These postings are not triggered when there’s a difference between the PO and the amount billed.

 

When I update the amount I get a popup about the tolerance amount

 

Any tips how to face this problem ?

Hi @Abdessamad ,

 

As far as I know M19 and M20 are for parts with Standard cost method and if it is weighted average the M19 and M20 will not be triggered and it is the standard behaviour.

Hello,

@Dharshankumaar Mahendran is right but missing information. If your part is weighted average and supplier invoice consideration is transaction based then M19 and M20 will not be triggered.

If the part is weighted average but supplier invoice consideration is ignore invoice price then the variances will be posted with M19 and M20

 

This setup below will not create M19 and M20 transactions 99,99%

 

In some rare cases even if you have the setup like above BALINVOIC+/BALINVOIC- events will create very low value with M19 and M20.

Hi @Abdessamad 

 

Inventory Valuation Method = Standard Cost.

 

Change the above.

Hi @Abdessamad 

I made the test in apps 10 you and it works. The part setup is completed before any PO for the part is created.

 

Change the part setup as below.

 

 

Setup SfPP.

 

 

Enter a PO and register the arrival

 

 

Match invoice with PO by changing the matched amount.

 

Go to Cost Postings tab and you will see the M19/M20 transactions

Hello, 

 

I guess I did exactly the same in my environment, still the difference is posted only in M18.

Here’s few screenshots attached to my message.

I think it needs more analysis to find cause of the issue.

Hello, 

 

Besides the inventory part setup, is there any other setups at the supplier or company level to check ?

Hello @Abdessamad 

Can you create a new part and setup basic as described then do test again?

@Abdessamad Just wondering if you every figured this out.  We’re having the same problem but not for all companies.  I have found 3 companies where the M20 isn’t getting triggered but it is for others.  The inventory part I’m troubleshooting with is configured the same for all companies.

 

Thanks

Shelley.

@smelanson have you checked the company setting ‘Create Tolerance Posting according to posting control’ ?

 

I believe this can also be setup at supplier level

Hi @ManilkaP

 

I checked and that flag is false in all our companies, so I think there must be something else. 

 

thanks
