# Case 4, 5: Quantity Within Tolerance, Unit Price Outside Tolerance (Approved)
## Scenario:
The quantity on the invoice is within tolerance, but the unit price is outside the acceptable tolerance range. However, this variance in the unit price has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate authorities.
## Action:
The system adjusts the unit price to match the purchase order and applies any necessary line charges to account for the difference.
## Example:
**Purchase Order (PO):**
Quantity: 100 units
Unit Price: $10.00 per unit
Total Amount: $1,000.00
**Invoice Received:**
Quantity: 100 units (within tolerance)
Unit Price: $11.00 per unit (outside tolerance of ±5%)
Total Amount: $1,100.00
**Tolerance Levels:**
Quantity Tolerance: ±2%
Unit Price Tolerance: ±5% (expected range: $9.50 to $10.50)
**Approval:**
• The $11.00 unit price is outside the tolerance range but has been manually approved by the appropriate department.
Since the quantity is within tolerance but the unit price is outside tolerance (yet approved), the system will:
1\. **Adjust the Unit Price**: The system adjusts the unit price back to the PO’s unit price because the variance was approved:
• **Adjusted Unit Price = $10.00 per unit**
• **Adjusted Total Amount = 100 units × $10.00 per unit = $1,000.00**
2\. **Apply a Line Charge for the Difference**: Since the approved unit price of $11.00 is higher than the PO unit price of $10.00, the system applies a line charge to account for this difference:
• **Line Charge Amount = (Approved Invoice Unit Price - PO Unit Price) × Quantity**
• **Line Charge Amount = ($11.00 - $10.00) × 100 units = $100.00**
3\. **Process the Invoice**: The system processes the invoice with:
• **Base Amount:** $1,000.00
• **Line Charge:** $100.00
• **Total Processed Amount:** $1,100.00
This ensures that while the base PO values are maintained for consistency, the approved variance in the unit price is accounted for through an additional line charge, resulting in accurate financial processing and record-keeping.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.docbits.com/administration-and-setup/settings/document-processing/rule-manager/transactionconfig-pro-template/case-4-5-quantity-within-tolerance-unit-price-outside-tolerance-approved.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
