Overview
Investigate receipt accrual, returns, prepayments, and purchasing exceptions.
Before you begin
Confirm the active subsidiary and reporting dates/currency. Reports use their available role-scoped data and filters.
Main task
- Open Purchasing Reports from Reports or the purchasing workspace.
- Choose the supported report and active subsidiary scope.
- Review open commitments, receipt/bill allocations, returned-not-credited balances, and available recovery records.
- Follow PO, receipt, bill, return, or prepayment links to locate the source discrepancy.
- Use the supported controlled recovery action only after reviewing its affected records.
Check the result
Reports preserve source-based purchase balances. Recovery addresses a recorded exception rather than reconstructing purchasing from free-text references.
If something goes wrong
Check incomplete receipt/bill allocations, reversals, return credits, and posting periods. Do not repair purchasing by directly changing derived quantities.
