Non-Valuated GR and IR for Consumable Material

The figure shows a PO item for consumable material. No goods receipt (or only a non-valuated goods receipt) and invoice receipt are expected. At the time of the goods receipt, there are no postings to the consumption account. Therefore, posting to the GR/IR clearing account is not applicable. During invoice receipt, the consumption account is debited with the invoice amount. The offsetting entry is posted to the vendor account.

Valuated GR and IR for Stock Material

A purchase order item for stock material must fulfill the following requirements: A material number must be entered, which means that a material master record must exist for the material to be procured. No account assignment category is allowed to be entered. The Goods Receipt indicator must be set. If you post the goods receipt for the purchase order (PO) item, a stock account is posted on the debit side. If you expect an invoice for the PO item, the offsetting entry is posted on the GR /IR account. The GR/IR account is cleared in full when the invoice is entered. The offsetting entry is posted to the vendor account.

Valuated GR and IR for Consumable Material

A purchase order item for consumable material must fulfill the following requirements: A material number can, but need not be entered. An account assignment category, an account assignment object, and a G/L account must be entered. The Goods Receipt indicator can be set, but is not mandatory, and the goods receipt can be valuated or non-valuated. The Non-valuated GR indicator controls whether the goods receipt is valuated or non-valuated. The figure shows a PO item for consumable material for which a valuated goods receipt and an invoice receipt are expected. At the time of the goods receipt, the consumption account that was specified in the purchase order item is debited with the procurement price. The offsetting entry is posted to the GR/IR clearing account. During invoice receipt, the GR/IR  clearing account is cleared in full. The offsetting entry is posted to the vendor account. If the invoice price varies from the order price, the corresponding difference is posted to the consumption account.
