Information Systems:Balance Unmatched PO's

The first (and largest) query month end report (file name QPQUPRFIL) gives the detail of unmatched receiving (remaining amounts on file SROGRT). The totals of the order types should match the G/L balances. You should look up the G/L balances as soon as possible, as the accounting department can back date entries to the previous period.

Some difference here are okay. The journal entries for manual orders (MO) are set up to both debit and credit 210050 when they are received, and again when they are invoiced. Therefore the G/L balance will always be zero.

Use Query on file SROTRAC (Entry pgm work file, G/L transactions) to look for transactions that have updated SROGRT (Goods reception transactions) but not the G/L file.

There could be a journal in error, which again would have updated SROGRT but not the G/L file.
