When you make a Delivery Note, the system checks if the quantity of items matches the quantity in the Sales Order. If you try to deliver more items than in the Sales Order, you’ll get a message saying you’re delivering too much.

If you want to be able to deliver more items than what’s in the Sales Order, you need to change the “Allow over delivery or receipt” setting in the Item master.

When you make an invoice, the system also checks the item’s price based on the previous transaction, like the Sales Order. This also happens when you make a Purchase Receipt or Purchase Invoice from a Purchase Order. Changing the “Allow over delivery or receipt” setting will affect all sales and purchase transactions.

For example, if you ordered a certain number of units of an item and the over receipt percent is set to a specific value, you can make a Purchase Receipt for up to a certain number of units.

Update global value for “Allow over delivery or receipt up to this percent” from Stock Settings. Value updated here will be applicable for all the items.

1. Go to Stock > Setup > Stock Settings
2. Set Limit Percentage.
3. Save Stock Settings.
