About Intercompany Payments and Cash Entries

You can use an intercompany account on a cash entry. When this cash entry is posted, the application creates the appropriate intercompany transfer records and takes the appropriate general ledger account (GLA) from the related intercompany definition:

• Accounts Receivable GLA for a receipt or refund.
• Accounts Payable GLA for a payment or payment refund.

The intercompany account that you enter can't be the one that represents the current companyThe company in which you are working. This is represented by the company queue to which you, and new instances of objects you create, are assigned..

The Handling of Dimensions

There are two places you can define analysis dimensions: on the account, and in the case of Intercompany transactions, on the intercompany definition.

If you enter default dimensions on the appropriate intercompany definition, they will be used as described here:

• When you create an intercompany cash entry line in the source company, and default accounts receivable dimensions exist on the intercompany definition, then these dimensions are used as a default when creating this cash entry. If they don't exist on the intercompany definition, the default dimensions are taken from the account. You can change these default dimensions before posting.
• When the destination cash entry is created, and default accounts payable dimensions exist on the intercompany definition, then these dimensions are used. If they don't exist on the intercompany definition, the dimensions are taken from the account.
