This error typically arises during the invoice verification process in the Materials Management (MM) module when the quantity on the invoice is less than what was originally ordered.
  Cause:
  
  Quantity Mismatch: The most common cause is that the vendor has invoiced a quantity that is less than what was ordered. This could be due to partial deliveries or errors in the invoice.
  Goods Receipt Issues: If the goods receipt was recorded for a different quantity than what was ordered, it can lead to this error during invoice verification.

  Adjust the Invoice: If the vendor has indeed delivered a lesser quantity, you may need to adjust the invoice to reflect the correct quantity. This can involve:
  
  Contacting the vendor to confirm the delivered quantity.
  Requesting a corrected invoice from the vendor if there was an error.
  
  
  Update the Purchase Order: If the order needs to be adjusted to reflect the actual delivered quantity, you may need to update the purchase order or create a new one for the remaining quantity.
  Goods Receipt Adjustment: If the goods receipt was recorded incorrectly, you may need to reverse the goods receipt and re-enter it with the correct quantity.
  Check Configuration: Ensure that the system settings allow for partial deliveries if that is acceptable in your business process.
