GRNI (Goods Received Not Invoiced)

Use recorded purchase receipts and supplier bills with matching dates and valuation currency. Check your company's inventory and goods-received-not-invoiced account settings.

1. 1
   Open the goods-received-not-invoiced view for the period.
2. 2
   Open each receipt without a fully matched posted bill.
3. 3
   Compare quantities, prices, and dates with the purchase order and bill.
4. 4
   Open each unmatched receipt and check whether a draft or posted bill references it.
5. 5
   Compare the clearing-account balance in General Ledger with the report at the same cutoff.

A receipt creates a temporary liability until the matching bill clears the applicable value.

Goods received not invoiced is a receipt/billing timing measure. A receipt can have an inventory and clearing-account effect before the bill; the bill's posting can clear or adjust that accrual according to the actual line.

WARNING: Do not assume the GRNI balance is always zero or that every supplier bill clears every receipt. Use the linked receipt and bill to resolve each difference.

Trace the difference to its receipt or bill before changing the ledger.

If a receipt remains open after billing, check bill matching and posting date before writing off the balance.
