Drop Shipment Accounting

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by 392
Hi:
 
In General Ledger Entries within Business Central, I have seen drop shipment accounting where the main /Inventory/ account from the Chart of Accounts is used.
 
Since drop shipments are not received into inventory, wouldn't it make more sense to have a very similar but separate inventory account for drop shipments called /Inventory - Drop Shipping/?
 
Thanks!

    Hi, if you want to do this, you need to at least create new items and assign new posting group.
    In this way, you can create a new Inventory Posting Setup and post to the account you need.
     
    Of course, it should be possible to customize it, but I don’t recommend it personally.
     
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
