On invoices for materials, when you enter a number in the Quantity field
of the Invoice Lines tab, a search is performed
for matching material receipts. In seeking a match between an invoice
quantity and a receipt quantity, a match is made to either a single
quantity in a receipt line item or to the total quantity for a receipt.
The search for a match is performed according to the following
criteria:
- If you enter an invoice quantity that equals a receipt quantity,
the invoice is matched with the receipt.
- If you enter an invoice quantity that is less than a
receipt quantity, the invoice is matched with the receipt.
In any of the following cases, you receive a warning and the invoice
is not matched with the receipt:
- You specify a purchase order and a purchase order line item. The
invoice quantity exceeds either the quantity that has not been invoiced
or the order quantity.
- You specify a purchase order and a purchase order line item. The
invoice quantity causes an invoice total exceeding the total cost
of the purchase order.
- You specify a purchase order on which the Receipt Required check
box is selected, and you enter a quantity that does not match the
receipts.
