It’s a little known secret, but in SAP, you can actually overwrite the values proposed by SAP. If you receive an invoice for a particular PO, the value will be presented. But if you don’t like that value you can change it.
People often say to me, we don’t have any invoices that exceed the purchase order, because we have SAP, and you can’t do that in SAP.
Really… it doesn’t take long to show them otherwise.
Do you know how many invoices are exceeding the PO value in your system? Is that over the 5 or 10% threshold limit that is allowed by your company?
