SAP MM Invoice Verification : Handling unplanned delivery costs
Unplanned delivery costs are not known at the time of purchase order creation and hence these are not specified in the purchase order. These are only entered at the time of vendor invoice posting.
These unplanned delivery costs can be either distributed to the individual items or to a separate G/L account.

AUA: for order settlement
AUF: for goods receipts for orders (without account assignment) and for order settlement if AUA is not maintained.
AUI: Subsequent adjustment of actual price from cost center directly to material (with account assignment)
BSA: for initial entry of stock balances
INV: for expenditure/income from inventory differences
VAX: for goods issues for sales orders without account assignment object (the account is not a cost element)
VAY: for goods issues for sales orders with account assignment object (account is a cost element)
VBO: for consumption from stock of material provided to vendor
VBR: for internal goods issues (for example, for cost center)
VKA: for sales order account assignment (for example, for individual purchase order)
VKP: for project account assignment (for example, for individual PO)
VNG: for scrapping/destruction
VQP: for sample withdrawals without account assignment
VQY: for sample withdrawals with account assignment
ZOB: for goods receipts without purchase orders (mvt type 501)
ZOF: for goods receipts without production orders (mvt types 521 and 531)

SAP MM Invoice Verification : Alternate Payee
There are 3 available options in SAP
-Alternative payee
-Alternative payee in document
-Permitted payee
Alternate Payee:
The Alternative payee field is available on the vendor master data screen on two different screens: the general payment transaction screen and the company code specific payment screen of the vendor. If an alternative payee is entered, all payments to a vendor are issued to the alternative payee. If the alternative payee is filled in both screens, general payment transaction and company code-specific payment transaction screen the company code-specific payee has priority.
Alternative Payee in Document:
This option is similar to the one-time vendor invoice and payment functionality in AP. Here, however, the user has the option to enter an alternate address or bank information into the invoice, whereas for one-time vendors, this information must always be filled in. To allow Alternative payee in document information to be entered, the Individual spec. box must be checked in the payment transaction screen of the vendor master
data. Once the Alternative payee in document information is allowed for a vendor, the Individual
payee check box is available during invoice entry on the Payment tab of the invoice. If you check
the Individual payee box, a new screen pops up that allows you to enter alternative address or bank information specific to this invoice.
Permitted Payee:
This option allows the assignment of multiple permitted payees to the same vendor. First, permitted payees need to be assigned in the vendor master data and then chosen during invoice entry. Permitted payees can be assigned in the general payment transaction screen in the vendor master data, and are therefore valid for all company codes. Once you click on the Permitted payee button, a second screen appears that allows multiple permitted payees to be assigned to the vendor. Once the Alternative payee in document information is allowed for a vendor, the Individual payee checkbox is available during invoice entry on the Payment tab of the invoice. The user must choose the correct payee address manually from the permitted payee list. Therefore, issuance of payments to the wrong payee address is avoided far more easily than with the alternative payee option.
