• Key Concepts: 
  The General Tolerance Rule in SAP Global Trade Services (SLL GTS) is a feature that allows users to define a tolerance level for discrepancies between the declared and actual values of goods. This tolerance level is used to determine whether a discrepancy should be flagged as an exception or not. The General Tolerance Rule is used to reduce the number of exceptions that need to be manually reviewed and processed.
  
  How to use it: 
  The General Tolerance Rule can be set up in the SLL GTS system by defining a tolerance percentage for each type of discrepancy. This percentage is then used to determine whether a discrepancy should be flagged as an exception or not. For example, if the tolerance percentage for discrepancies in quantity is set to 5%, then any discrepancies that are greater than 5% will be flagged as an exception.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up the General Tolerance Rule, it is important to consider the types of discrepancies that are likely to occur in your business and set the tolerance levels accordingly. It is also important to ensure that the tolerance levels are not set too low, as this could lead to too many exceptions being flagged and require manual review and processing.
