Why do they have different results?

Including carbon uptake in the result it is clear to get to different results. But when I sum up only the categories, (GWP biogenic, Fossil and Land use change) shouldnt the openLCA IA-method have the same result as ei-IPCC 2013? The results differ 10%.
in openLCA by (120 points)
by (1.5k points)
Please, can you give more details?
by (120 points)
In which way more details?
If you analyse one and the same product system e.g. Paper and you choose one time ei-IPCC 2013 and one time IPCC 2013 (CO2-uptake) they have different results.  I thought they should only differ in the category CO2-uptake.  If you sum up the results with the LCIA IPCC 2013 (CO2-uptake) but without the CO2-uptake it should have the same result as IPCC 2013 (which is by default without CO2-uptake). But the results differ.

is it more clear now?
thank you!
