2157388 - GR/IR Clearing Run is Not Showing any Postings for Purchasing Document

Symptom

You are not able to view the postings for GR/IR Clearing Run for a specified Clearing Set.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Inventory Valuation work center.
  2. Go to the Periodic Tasks view.
  3. Go to GR/IR Clearing subview.
  4. Search for GR/IR Clearing Run ABC (ABC means the GR/IR Clearing Run ID).
  5. Click Log Result.
  6. Go to the Postings tab.

Here you can see that there are no postings for this run.

Cause

The root cause for this issue is that you are performing the GR/IR Clearing Run for previous fiscal year and the documents clearing dates are outside the scope for the clearing.

Example:

You are following the Non-Calendar Fiscal Year, which is from April to March, and 2015 is your current fiscal year. Now you are executing a GR/IR Clearing Run for the period 012.2014 assuming that this covers March 2015.
The relevant supplier invoice and goods and service receipt are posted in March 2015. This however, in line with the fiscal year definition, corresponds to period 012/2015 instead of 012/2014.

Fiscal Year: 2014
001/2014 = April 2013
012/2014 = March 2014

The purchase order posting is done later to this and this GR/IR Clearing Run will not clear this purchase order because you are trying to perform GR/IR Clearing for the period 012.2014.

As per the rule to perform the GR/IR Clearing: if the clearing period is not the same as the current fiscal period then the system will then get the last posting day for the clearing period for 2014 fiscal year, meaning 31-03-2014.

Resolution

You need to create a GR/IR Clearing Run for the current fiscal period (012.2015). Postings then will be generated accordingly.
