You must post a subsequent adjustment to correct the goods issue posting when the vendor informs you after goods receipt that a greater or smaller quantity of the components was actually consumed than planned in the purchase order.

To do this, proceed as follows:

MB04 - Subcontracting Subsequent Adjustment
Fill in the Purchase Order Number and hit enter
Tick the checkbox of the components you want to adjust and click the Adopt button or press F5
Enter the quantity difference. If more of the components were consumed, enter a positive amount, if fewer were consumed enter a negative amount.
Finally, post the document.
After saving, the value of the goods receipt is recalculated to include the subsequent quantity.
