The A/P Inventory Accrual Account (VR) report shows what Blackpurl indicates as the total of your Accounts Payable (A/P) Inventory Accrual for Vendor Receivings (VR) that have been stocked but are still waiting for a Vendor Invoicing (VI) to be processed against them. Use this report to verify that your Blackpurl totals reconcile with your accounting package.
What This Report Is For
The A/P Inventory Accrual Account (VR) report gives you a total of all Vendor Receivings that have been stocked in Blackpurl but do not yet have a matching Vendor Invoice processed against them. This outstanding balance represents your A/P Inventory Accrual — the liability your dealership has recorded for inventory received but not yet invoiced by the vendor.
How to Run This Report
1. From the Blackpurl header, navigate to Reporting > Report > Reconciliation > A/P Inventory Accrual Account (VR).
2. The report opens pre-configured with the relevant filters, columns, and totals. To get the total of stocked Vendor Receivings still waiting for a Vendor Invoice, click Balance at the top left of the report page and review the total.
When to Use This Report
Run this report regularly — at minimum at the end of each month. Use it to balance your accounting package's A/P Inventory Accrual General Ledger for Vendor Receivings (stocked only, waiting for Vendor Invoices) against the corresponding total in Blackpurl.
What to Do With This Report
If your dealership has accounting integration enabled, use this report to compare the A/P Inventory Accrual Account (VR) total in Blackpurl against the matching A/P Inventory Accrual Account General Ledger balance in your accounting package.
For step-by-step guidance on performing that comparison and confirming your totals reconcile, see Reconcile the Received Inventory Accrual Account.
