What happens to materials delivered under GR blocked stock?

Materials that are delivered under Goods Receipt (GR) blocked stock remain unvalued until they are released. This is a specific scenario in inventory management where materials are received but cannot be used or sold until they have been verified or cleared through specific quality checks or administrative approvals.

In the context of GR blocked stock, when materials are received, they’re initially placed into a blocked inventory status to prevent their usage. This is important for maintaining proper control and ensuring that only quality-assured materials enter the unrestricted inventory for use in production or sales processes. During this period, the materials are not assigned a value because their status needs to be confirmed before any financial implications are recorded in the system. Once the necessary checks are completed, and the materials are approved for use, they can then be moved to unrestricted stock, at which point they are valued properly.

The other options do not apply in this context. For instance, materials in GR blocked stock cannot be invoiced immediately (which would imply they are cleared for use), nor are they archived, as they remain in the system and need to go through the proper release process. Adding them directly to unrestricted stock would bypass the necessary validation steps, which is not the intended function of blocked stock status.
