M3 error message: NOK Too many decimals (XNU0004 IVQA)

Updated

The interface rounds the quantity to three decimals based on the alternative unit of measure (MMS015), while the basic unit of measure (MMS001) permits no decimals. Discuss this with whoever maintains the item master data.

Item Description
Error message from M3 NOK Too many decimals XNU0004 IVQA
M3 programs MMS001, MMS015
Type of message Item master data
Has the invoice already been (partly) posted in M3? Yes, partly - check this in M3 before you submit the invoice again.

What does this message mean?

The item being posted has both an alternative unit of measure (MMS015) and a basic unit of measure (MMS001), and they are the same, for example both KG.

Because the interface cannot distinguish between the two, it uses the settings of the alternative unit of measure and rounds to three decimals. If the basic unit of measure permits no decimals, this error follows.

What to check

  1. Look up the item number stated in the message.
  2. Check the alternative unit of measure in MMS015 and the number of decimals permitted there.
  3. Check the basic unit of measure in MMS001 and the number of decimals permitted there.
ℹ️
Info: Discuss this with whoever maintains the item master data within your organisation. The solution lies in the master data, not in the invoice.

How to process the invoice further

Correct the failed invoice manually in M3. Correct it, do not reverse it. Once you have corrected the invoice in M3, you move it forward in AP Automation with the option Corrected in ERP. See Moving an invoice forward with "Corrected in ERP".
