Note: Multi-Entity functionality is for cloud customers only.
The Intercompany Post screens are available if your system has multi-entity accounting enabled (see Setup Multi-Entity). Administrators must first set up the intercompany relationships on the Setup Multi-Entity Associations page.
The Intercompany Post process allows you to create intercompany accounting transactions for legal entities lending and borrowing resources with other legal entities. A legal entity can be a borrower of resources onto their projects and a lender of resources to other legal entities as well. Lending companies run this post for intercompany revenue postings and borrowing companies run this post for intercompany cost postings. A company can have both revenue and cost postings in the same post process.
Each legal entity in an intercompany relationship will need to run the Intercompany Post to create their respective General Ledger entries. You cannot select multiple legal entities and create entries on their individual books simultaneously.
This screen is available to users having any of the following roles: Administrator or GL Admin.
