Handling Over-Delivery and Billing Exceptions in iVendNext

Overview

This guide explains how to configure and handle over-delivery scenarios in iVendNext.




1. Understanding Over-Delivery/Billing

Over-delivery occurs when:


  • Shipping quantities exceed original order amounts

  • Billing rates differ from quoted prices

  • Partial shipments accumulate beyond ordered totals


Key Benefit: Proper configuration prevents order rejections while maintaining audit trails for variances.



2. Configuration Options

2.1 Item-Level Settings

  1. Navigate to: Item Master > Shipping & Billing

  2. Set: "Allow over delivery/receipt up to [X]%"

    • Example: 50% allows 150 units for a 100-unit order


2.2 Global Settings

  1. Go to: Stock > Setup > Stock Settings

  2. Set default percentage for all items:

    • Applies when item-specific % isn't set

    • Recommended: Start with 10-20% tolerance





3. Workflow Management

3.1 Sales Process Exceptions

  • Delivery Notes: System warns when exceeding limits

  • Override Options:

    • Temporary adjustment with approval notes

    • Permanent limit updates for volatile items


3.2 Purchase Process Exceptions

  • Receipt Tolerance: Accept up to configured % over PO quantities

  • Auto-Reconciliation: Matches receipts to invoices within limits




4. Troubleshooting

Here’s a quick look at some common issues you might run into.


System Rejecting Valid Over-Delivery:

  • Check both item-specific and global settings

  • Verify user permissions for override approvals


Incorrect Billing Calculations:

  • Confirm rate tolerance settings in Accounting Preferences

  • Review landed cost configurations for international shipments
