When you receive an inbound delivery and specify the delivered quantity, Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) checks if the tolerance for an overdelivery was kept.You can check, reset, or, if necessary, manually overwrite the inspection result.
EWM only performs this check for inbound deliveries or for expected goods receipts.
EWM compares the data of the inbound delivery or the expected goods receipt with the data from the purchase order in SAP ERP or the delivery data in EWM.The decision whether EWM is to check of the purchase order data in SAP ERP or the delivery data in EWM is made in SAP ERP.
EWM copies the quantities and unit of measure from the purchase order or from the order in SAP ERP to an inbound delivery or an expected goods receipt.EWM saves this data as quantity roll PQTOT
Total Purchase Order
, or PPQTOT
Total Order Quantity.

When EWM generates an inbound delivery, it checks the data for a quantity tolerance according to the Customizing settings in EWM.If the check is positive, that is, if EWM does not block any delivery item, you can post the goods receipt, and EWM generates the related warehouse tasks.EWM performs this check in the following cases:
If you change the tolerance for an overdelivery of a delivery item, or the related unit of measure
If you choose
Check
on the user interface of the inbound delivery
Based on the inspection results, EWM sets the status for the status type
DTL Check Tolerance.
You can check or reset the inspection result. If the check is negative, you can accept the result despite this before you book the goods receipt.
The tolerance check of the purchase order item can also take into account quantities from other delivery items that refer to the same purchase order.If you, for example, make a quantity change in such a case after EWM has performed the tolerance check for an overdelivery, you can manually trigger the check for the current delivery item.Choose
with the quick info text
Check
.EWM performs the check using the new data.
You check the products that have been delivered directly on site, perform changes for the tolerance check if necessary, and post the goods receipt.
If EWM sets the status
Not OK
for the tolerance check, the delivery item is inconsistent.You cannot post a goods receipt for this delivery item.However, you can manually approve the tolerance check and as a result accept an overdelivery.EWM sets the status
OK, manually
for the tolerance check. You can post the goods receipt.
If you have mistakenly performed the check on the tolerance check for an incorrect delivery item, you can manually reset the status of the tolerance check for this delivery item.
If you want to manually approve or reset the check, you can, for example, perform one of the following options:
