The GR/IR clearing account contains a list of all goods
and invoice received. If, at the end of a period, the
balance of this account is not zero, there are either
• Goods that were billed but not yet delivered
• Goods that were delivered but not yet invoiced
When the books are closed, these balances need to be
listed as either an asset (goods billed but not yet
delivered account) or a liability (goods delivered but
not yet invoiced account) in the financial statements
