Buyer Message - Receiving (PO52.1)
Use Buyer Message - Receiving (PO52.1) to look up messages that were generated by the Purchase Order application because the shipment of goods received exceeded the quantity ordered by more than the overshipment tolerance allowed.
Processing Effect
Tolerances are defined at three levels:
- line
- vendor
- company
If a tolerance is exceeded, the Purchase Order application generates a message for the buyer. It displays a message next to the purchase order line on the PO30 receiving form. Buyer messages can also be listed in PO251 (PO Buyer Message Listing). The buyer must use this form to review and release the message before the receiving can be released in the PO30 receiving forms.
