Yes,it depends on business requirement,let's say if business tells that it is allowed to have goods receipt 10% plus order quantity, e.g, we ordered from our vendor 100 pcs in purchase order, while one day our vendor sent goods for us with quantity 105 pcs which is allowed by our business ,then we are able to set over delivery tolerance as 10%, then a person who has goods receipt is able to do migo,otherwise SAP will not allow to do that action due to quantity difference...hope it helps.

Hi there:

PO tolerance comes from purchasing value key maintaining in purchasing view of material master data, also you can configure it, path in spro: Materials management/purchasing/material master/define purchasing value keys, hope it helps.
