The posting is as follows:

Debit: Account 300000 (Inventory: Raw materials)·
Credit: Account 191100 (Goods Recvd/Invoice Recvd)This document is an open item that is only cleared once the invoice for the order has been received.
In this example, we do not enter an invoice. For this reason, you have to make an adjustment posting for the quantity received that has not yet been billed.
