PO tolerances  

This option allows you to work with purchase order tolerances (variances between the invoice amount and the receipt amount).

If you are automatically matching and processing AP invoices as they are scanned, one of the validations that will prevent an invoice from being automatically posted is being outside the allowed tolerance. You will need to set up values here for each PO type.

1. At the EMMS main menu, select Administration | Business Parameters.
   • The Business Parameters display screen appears.
2. Right-click on Purchasing and select Change.
   • The Purchasing Business Parameters change screen appears.
3. Click PO Tolerances .
   • The Maintain PO Tolerances change screen appears.
4. Fill in the fieldsfields as required.

   Tolerance Amount is the purchase tolerance amount allowed for the specified PO type. It can be left blank to indicate that no tolerance is allowed. The tolerance will be used in a "whichever is less" method if both values are non-zero.

   Tolerance Percent is the purchase tolerance allowed for the specified PO type as a percentage of the purchase amount. It can be left blank to indicate that no tolerance is allowed. The tolerance will be used in a "whichever is less" method if both values are non-zero.

5. Click Enter to save the tolerances.
6. Click Exit 3 times to return to the menu.
