Summary :
After conducting GR/IR clearing account maintenance (MR11), the material price may turn negative if a material appears multiple times in a transaction, like across various purchase order items, and the total reduction exceeds the current stock value. To resolve, adjust materials' prices to realistic values using MR21, apply provided corrections, and create error message 023 in CKMLGRIR. This ensures that the GR/IR clearing account clears correctly, preventing negative pricing and potential accounting discrepancies.
