Automating month-end rectification entries for packed-but-not-invoiced materials

I have a scenario where materials that are packed (packing slip posted) are not always fully invoiced within the same period, and I would like to understand whether D365 provides any standard mechanism to post rectification entries at month-end for the resulting value difference.

Illustrative example:
I have a Sales Order for Item 1 with a quantity of 5, at a selling price of Rs. 1,000 each.
Packing slip posted for all 5 quantities → inventory/physical entry posted for Rs. 5,000.

Invoice posted for only 4 quantities → financial entry posted for Rs. 4,000.
At month-end, because of the Rs. 1,000 difference (the 1 quantity packed but not yet invoiced), our accounting team currently creates a manual rectification journal to adjust the inventory cost / clearing account mismatch at the ledger level.

My questions:
-Is there any standard functionality in D365 F&O to automatically identify and post these packing-slip-vs-invoice value differences at period-end?
-Can a batch job be scheduled to pick up all such value mismatches (across sales orders) and post the rectification entries automatically, instead of doing it manually?

Any guidance on standard features (e.g., relevant periodic tasks, posting profile configurations, or reports) or recommended approaches others have used for this would be greatly appreciated.
