There is no way to stop a user from over receiving the PO Receipts amount

When using the Receiving option in PO there is not an option to not allow the Receipts amount to exceed the PO amount. If you over receive on a PO the system will not give you an error message allowing you to be able to invoice to an amount higher than your PO in AP.

  There should at least be a company parameter setting somewhere to control this. Users should not be able to receive more than the ordered amount.

  Having a real issue with this... 3 years now, and this still hasn't been addressed?

  An error message needs to occur when an entry is made in excess of the PO order quantity. Without this, difficult to correct issues arise later as identified.

  We have the same problem with over-receiving on both Lump Sum & Unit Cost PO's. So frustrating. People should not be able to receive more than what the PO was issued for otherwise the over-receipt problem goes so far down the process line that it's a HUGE pain to correct.
