Header Data

Symptom

When you post a goods receipt or make a service entry, no availability control action (for example, a warning message or error message) is triggered even if the tolerance limits are exceeded.

Other Terms

Budget, MB01, ML81.

Reason and Prerequisites

System design The process recommended by SAP determines the availability control to be carried out on the basis of the purchase order commitment at the time of creating a purchase order. The posting of a goods receipt for a purchase order should not be impaired by error messages from availability control. In addition, in certain scenarios with automatic background processes, it is impossible for technical reasons to use availability control to block goods receipts because the available budget cannot be checked until actual data has been transferred to the update. The assigned value is recorded in any case.

Solution

If possible, use the commitment values from the purchase order to check the budget. Check the usage of non-valuated goods receipts or do not allow any account assignment change for the goods receipt posting. However, if you wish to have an availability check carried out for goods receipts, you can achieve this for Transactions MIGO, MB01, and ML81 via the user exit described in Note 696362 as of Release 4.6C.
