Tolerated payment differences
Tolerated payment differences
The allowed payment difference tolerances depend on the payment difference limits defined for specific users in the Payment Authorizations (tfcmg1100m000) session or as default values in the CMG Parameters (tfcmg0100s000) session.
LN determines the default tolerated payment difference for an invoice based on:
- The open amount.
- The invoice amount.
- The defined payment difference tolerances.
Example 1
The amount on the invoice is USD 1,000. The following tolerances are defined for payment differences:
| Percentage of invoice lower than expected: | 10% |
| Invoice amount lower than expected: | 50 (in reference currency) |
The default payment difference is 50.
The default payment difference must meet both conditions. In this case, the first condition dictates that the payment difference must be less than 100 (10% * 1,000 = 100). However, the second condition dictates that the payment difference must be less than 50. Therefore, the default payment difference is 50.
Example 2
The amount on the invoice is USD 1,000. The following tolerances are defined for payment differences:
| Percentage of invoice lower than expected: | 3% |
| Invoice amount lower than expected: | 50 |
