Uninvoiced Receipt Accrual Report

Use the Uninvoiced Receipt Accrual report for reviewing uninvoiced purchase order receipts that are due for accrual or already accrued in a business unit for a given period. As a cost accountant, you would typically use this report during period end to review the receipt accruals.

When to Use

You must run the report after you run the Create Uninvoiced Receipt Accruals process in the Report accrual run mode. This ensures that the report shows the data based on the selection criteria with which the Create Uninvoiced Receipt Accruals process was run, and thereby ensuring you know exactly what you accrue and for what amount.

After you have reviewed the Uninvoiced Receipt Accruals Report and taken any necessary actions, you must run the Create Uninvoiced Receipt Accruals process in the Accounting accrual run mode before running the Create Accounting process.

If the accruals amounts listed in the report differ from the actual distributions created by the Create Uninvoiced Receipt Accruals process, it could be due to any of the listed reasons:

  • You have received and processed invoices between running the process and the report.

  • You have returned the goods.
