Jordi, I fully agree but I have 2 comments :
1 - On a similar way of what we did in account_invoice_reference, why not forcing the PO number to be propagated to the reference of the account move line ?
2 - I suggest not using the std auto reconcile tool (your printscreen) but rather the account_advanced_reconcile (as already said) since this tool can handle high volumetry + you can set a commit every x move (in the settings) + you already have a reconcile rule based on the refrence.

But it is just suggestions though.

Hello,

Find below some of my conclusions:

Account GR/IR (or GNRI) should normally stay low or zero, and the balance should reflect the transactions that are outstanding from the 3 way match perspective.

In order for the user to be able to analyze the status of this GL account, there should be the possibility to reconcile debits and credits of the same transaction, so that the remaining balance indicates the value of products that have been received, for which no invoice has been entered or viceversa.

If this reconciliation between transactions does not occur, it will be very hard to identify the causes of an existing balance in this GL account.

Reconciliation using manual process is now difficult due to the lack of information about the purchase order & line available in the journal items.

Existing automatic reconciliation tools in Odoo will only use the GL Account and Partner as the basis to reconcile debits and credits, which will not be enough to reconcile the full transaction.

In order to be able to reconcile this account the journal items should indicate the originating purchase order (and ideally the purchase order number as well).

The automatic reconciliation tools should be adjusted in order to incorporate the PO as criteria for the reconciliation process.

The automatic reconciliation tool then should allow the user to indicate that during the reconciliation the system should group debits and credits belonging to the same GL account, partner AND purchase order.

Thanks Fréderic, I will look into the module.

I hope I am not off topic since I dis not read everything (sorry) but to automatise the reconcile why not using the account_advanced_reconcile, you could even code an extra specific reconcile rule ...

Thanks to all.

@Ray, I am familiar with ASA module. I use a modified version of it that we built ourselves.

As Kevin says, you quickly can end up with thousands of credits and debits in the GR/IR account and if it's out of balance it's impossible to tell why.

When you reconcile all debits and credits belonging to the same transaction you can better understand what is left to reconcile, and when there are discrepancies, you can further investigate.

What Kevin suggests seems to be the way to go. We also do the same thing, but still missing the report to assist the user in the reconciliation process.

The existing automatic reconciliation tool would not do that job at all, because it will match debits and credits with the same amount and partner, but the credit and debit may belong to different transactions. But if you have nothing else, perhaps it is a viable workaround..

At the end for the 3 way match process to be completed, you need full traceability in the transactions to allow users to be confident that what was received was invoiced.

Regards,
Jordi.

We have an automated process that does this in V7 and V8 (and will end up migrating to V9. Otherwise you end up with 1000's of entries in the clearing accounts and no simple way to work out what the balance is made up of. A amnual process would only work with a very small customer.

Our version of anglo-saxon add the stock move id into the account.move.line for both the stock move and invoice transactions then uses this as the basis for reconciling.

The clearing happens when the Invoice is validated.

 

You don’t want it happening without a user being involved, because you use uncleared entries to detect unvalidated Invoices.

As far as I know there is no automatic clearing.
I am wondering (I think I tested long time ago but cant remember result) whether it is an option to set the clearing account as reconciliable and launch an automatic reconciliation on it.

Subject: GR/IR Clearing Process

Dear accounting experts,

 

Has anyone faced the need for a GR/IR clearing process?

 

In the context of perpetual inventory management (real-time inventory), that's the process by which Goods Received / Invoice Received account (also called GRNI - Goods Received Not invoiced) debit and credit entries originating from the same purchase order are reconciled.

 

The unreconciled entries in this GL account represent the valued goods that have been received from a supplier, for which no invoice has been entered yet.

 

 

Regards,
