GR?IR Manual Clearing

[Former Member]

Dear expert,

We want to clear of some the GR/IR that has differences, because there will be no subsequent delivery or invoices for this purchasea order.

I run the following steps:

1. Run MR11 : System automatically create a posting that will result in zero balance GR/IR for the purchase order and line item.

Eg: Before I run the MR11:

GR/IR credit balance : -1000 (from goods receipt) PO: 8000005002 Line Item: 10

GR/IR debit balance : 950 (from invoice) PO: 8000005002 Line Item: 10

Since there will be no further invoice for the remaining qty, we need to manually clear the above GR/IR.

I run MR11: system post the following:

Dr Purchase PRice Variance : 50

CR GR/IR : -50 PO: 8000005002 Line Item: 10

Now the GR/IR balance for the PO: 8000005002 Line Item: 10 is net off to zero.

However the status of this GR/IR is still open.

2. Because the status is still open, I run the F.13 automatic clearing. However system didn't clear the above PO: 8000005002 Line Item: 10 GR/IR.

Is there any misssing steps or configuration? How to enable the clearing of GR/IR for above cases?

Thank you very much in advance for your kind assisstance

Hello,

The steps what you have done was correct, to resolve the issue go for manual clearing using f-03

Hi Rama, Thks for the reply

I test the F-03 to manually clear the GR/IR, but system prevents manual clearing of GR/IR. Here is the error message: "GR/IR clearing account cannot be manually cleared"

Hello,

Please remove the tick mark of "automatic posting only" in the master data of the GL account, and clear using f-03, once the items are cleared, please activate " automatic posting only" .
