SAP message number 357 within class M8 - Invoiced quantity from order & & smaller than reversal quantity








Messsage Text for 357(M8)

Invoiced quantity from order & & smaller than reversal quantity


What causes this issue?
The quantity invoiced is smaller than the quantity reversed for item V2 of purchase order V1 . This can have one of the following reasons:
  • A credit memo was posted after the invoice you want to cancel was posted.

  • The GR/IR account has already been maintained for the order item concerned.

    • In both cases the quantity invoiced has been reduced. The quantity you wish to reverse would therefore be greater than the quantity actually invoiced. This is not possible.

    How to fix the issue?
    If a credit memo has been posted, you must first cancel this. Only then can you cancel the invoice. To see the number of the credit memo, choose Document -> Display , position the cursor on the order item and choose Environment -> PO history.
    If the GR/IR account has already been maintained, the invoice cannot be canceled. If this is the case, you must post a Credit memo without reference direct to the material to reverse the invoice and GR/IR account maintenance postings.
    Example: 
    ,,Invoice ,,GR/IR accnt maint.,,Credit memo w/o ref.
Stock account    ,,        ,,200 +             ,,200-
GR/IR accnt      ,,200 +   ,,200 -
Vendor account   ,,200 -   ,,                  ,,200 +
