Goods Received Not Invoiced (GRNI) Reconciliation

The objective of this write up is to highlight the importance of monthly review and reconciliation on GRNI. Some common problems and solutions will be discussed here.

GRNI- Definition
GRNI is an acronym for Goods Received Not Invoiced. A GRNI reconciliation or report has details that support the GL balance in the accounts that represents those receipts of materials, both inventory and non inventory as well as services, that an organisation has not yet entered an A/P invoice for.

What get posted in GRNI ?
Receipts and returns, invoices and credit notes against purchase orders flow through GRNI tracking. In essence, GRNI is a clearing account to record accrual and reversal of materials and services received by the organisation, but the invoice (or credit note for returns) hasn’t been posted into the system.

GST, goods and services tax are not captured via GRNI as they will be posted together with the invoices and credit notes.

CR : AP Accrual Inventory(2 -1210) - $2400.00 (with PO reference 101234)

DR : GST Paid (2-1330) - $240.00
CR : Trade Creditors (2-1200) - $2,640.00
