3400545 - Price Variance exception is not triggered on Supplier Invoice.

There is a discrepancy in prices between the Supplier Invoice and the Purchase Order, but the system does not initiate a Price Variance exception as anticipated.

Instead, it displays a warning message and does not prevent the transaction from being posted.

SAP Business ByDesign

1. Go to Supplier Invoicing work center.
2. Go to Invoices and Credit Memos view.
3. Open the affected supplier invoice ABC (ABC represents the invoice ID).
4. You find there is Price Variance between Supplier Invoice and Purchase Order, however system only shows warning message and invoice status is showing as Ready For Posting, not Exception.

1. Navigate to the Business Configuration work center.
2. Search for and open the activity labeled Supplier Invoice Exceptions.
3. Go to the Exception Type called Price Variance.
4. Observe that the Exception Criteria includes only Variance Higher Than, which signifies that the exception alerting 'The average net price XXX for 1 UoM is greater than the price YYY of purchase order ABC. Rounding differences are possible.' will only be activated when the Supplier Invoice price XXX exceeds the Purchase Order price YYY.
5. If XXX is less than YYY, the system will only issue a warning message to the user.

This is the current design of the system.
