3744703 - PP Tolerance lower limit exceeded does not set payment block during supplier invoice posting

When posting an invoice the lower limit is exceeded for PP tolerance check but no payment block is issued.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Create a purchase order.
2. Post the goods receipt.
3. Enter an invoice with an amount below the tolerance limit.
4. The invoice is not blocked for payment, although messages are raised. 

This is standard system behavior.

For tolerance key PP (price/value variance), exceeding the lower limit (invoice value lower than PO) issues only a warning and does not set a payment block.

A payment block for price/value variance is only set when the upper limit of the PP tolerance is exceeded to prevent overpayment.

The lower limit of tolerance key PP does not set a payment block; only a warning is displayed.

If a payment block is required for price/value variances, maintain the upper limit for tolerance key PP in SSCUI “Define Tolerance Limits: Invoice Verification” (ID 101947) to the desired threshold (for example, 0.00 to block any positive price variance).

• Refer to: SAP Note 1598731 - Payment block is not issued when lower limit is exceeded during Invoice Posting
