Correcting effects of MR11 on inventory quantity

[jeff_mayfield2]

MR11 was recently used as a method to clear GRIR of old purchasing receipts that were deemed to be incorrect..

Looking back it appears this has been done for years without the effect on Inventory quantity and MAP being noticed.   As people have increased the use of MR11 the true effect of the process is being noticed with incorrectly high inventory quantities and low MAP. 

We can reverse the very recent MR11 postings with MR11SHOW, the reverse the PO receipts correctly with a cancellation.  Is there a way to correctly the effect of the older MR11 clearings?  

Intuitively it seems that the quantity needs to be reduced by the quantity changed in MR11 but nothing is ever that simple.   Do we have to update the MAP to the correct value, then consume the excess material to get back to a true quantity and MAP?

Any suggestions on the best way out of this problem we've created?

Thanks in advance!

Dear Jeff,

It's very much helpful if you share your accounting entries which effect the MAP of concerned Materials.

As far as MR11 is concerned it only deals in GRIR clearing, normally you have to take of one thing i.e. either you are going to do Delivery surplus or Invoice Surplus. If it is delivery surplus than it will make the entry like

GRIR A.c  DR

Stock A/c    Cr

To me it will effect the moving average price

Hi,

For GR/IR account maintenance you can use MR11 but one must know impact of MR11  and Refer alternate options for MR11 based on PO status

Hi,

   MR11 is for GR/IR clearing and it wont affect the inventory quantity as of my knowledge. There is no material document created during MR11 and it will only adjust the MAP. Refer the doc:

   If there is wrong MAP due to MR11, either you can cancel the MR11 using MR11SHOW or you may adjust the MAP using MR21. If quantity in SAP is different from physical stock, you may go for a physical inventory and correct the stock!
