FLOW1 function output not matching with Load Flow Solution

I have written a power plant controller model in PSSE. I need to initialize the PPC model with remote branch flow. I used the FLOW1() function to get the active and reactive power flow of the remote branch. Somehow there is a difference in the results between the steady-state model and this function output. The difference is very minor (0.02 MVAR). Due to this, I am getting initial suspects in the PSSE model, which is not accepted by many utilities.

CALL FLOW1(M+1,L+2,L+3,L+4) Q = VAR(L+2)

from load flow Q = 16.0042 MVAR, but from VAR(L+2) it is 15.99409 MVAR. Even though the difference is very small but it will show as a suspect.

Kindly help me to resolve this issue.
