If you want to use accruals, but you invoice more than what is received on the PO, you shouldn't have to go back, update the receiving, and then go ahead with the invoice. This is unnecessary administrative work for a system that should be saving time and reducing administrative tasks.
The knowledge base recommends updating the receiving amounts, but if the invoice is already entered then the accrual never gets reversed.
It should be optionally possible to close a PO, even if the invoiced amount doesn't match the received amount but is higher than the received amount.
We should be able to close a PO in that case since the received amount is already completely reversed by the invoice entry against the PO.
Basically if there is no accrual left, we should be able to close the PO.
Without this there is a massive amount of cleanup required to receive PO's and then reverse all of the accrual entries manually.
