  Check Material Master Settings:
  
  Go to the material master record for the affected material and check the valuation type. Ensure that the material is set up for batch management and that the valuation type is correctly configured for individual batch valuation.
  
  
  
  Review Invoice Verification Settings:
  
  Ensure that the invoice verification process is set to GR-based invoice verification for the materials that are batch-managed. This can be configured in the purchasing view of the material master.
