Discrepancy between posting date and created on date in material document for goods movement posted from EWM

Issue details: Discrepancy between the Posting Date and the Created On date/time in the Document Info tab of a material document for Goods Receipt posted via standard RFC from SAP EWM.

Posting Date is earlier than the Created On date.

Root Cause: The ERP inbound queue for EWM goods movement can be delayed or temporarily stuck (for example, visible in SMQ2); therefore, CPUDT reflects the later queue processing time while BUDAT remains the original GR posting date. This is standard behavior in ERP↔EWM integration.

Solution: Note that this behavior is by design: Posting Date (BUDAT) corresponds to the GR date; Created On (CPUDT) reflects when the queue was successfully processed.

Thanks, and Best Regards,
