Documentation

Definition

Displays the largest quantity that you can post to an account assignment item with final account assignment while processing the current incoming invoice. To determine the open quantity, the system takes into account the final account assignment quantity and previously entered invoice quantities.

Use

When you enter an incoming invoice, the system determines the open quantity based on the final account assignment quantity that is specified in the purchase order for the item with a final account assignment. When posting quantities from partial goods receipts or invoice receipts to an item with a final account assignment, you cannot exceed the final account assignment quantity. When calculating the open quantity that you may currently post to the item with a final account assignment, the system calculates the difference between the final account assignment quantity and the invoice quantities that have already been posted to the account assignment item.

When calculating the quantity difference, the system only includes quantities from posted incoming invoices, and does not take parked invoice quantities into account. However, you can specify in Customizing for Public Sector Management that the system should take into account invoices with the status parked as complete and parked released when calculating the final account assignment quantity. Then the system also includes invoices with those two statuses when calculating the open quantity.

Dependencies

If, in the current invoice, several goods receipts are being invoiced for one purchase order item for which goods-receipt-based invoice verification is activated, the system proposes one invoice line for each goods receipt posted. Since the invoice lines generated reference the same account assignments, the proposed quantities also reduce the open quantity of an account assignment item.
