Hello,
I am using BC v17 in SaaS and I am new to Cost accounting.
I need to transfer values from G/L Accounts to Cost Accounting.
My G/L Accounts are synchronized with Chart of Cost Types.
However, for working with "values" in cost accounting, I understand they can come from G/L Entries, weather manually or automatic.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/business-central/finance-transfer-and-post-cost-entries
I have several questions:
1. How would manually posting work in case for Cost Entries ? (based or not based on GL Entries), where are those entries?
2. If I have G/L Accounts, and posting of G/L Entries without dimensions (case where I have one gl account for electricity, one for rent etc., so no need for dimensions), I can create a new Dimension "Various" and assign some statis Dimension values, to concrete G/L Accounts, therefore I can assure that all transactions on G/l Accounts are considered for transferring, and posted to Cost Types, right?
3. I have created Cost centers, some are from dimension (one dimension/multiple values), but I have additional Cost Centers, which are in other dimensions defined, those cannot be used in Cost Centers? What is use of manual creating Cost Centers in Cost accounting, if values cannot be posted there?
4. When starting Task - "Transfer GL Entries to CA" it is processing and then error - "Could not transfer general ledger entries to Cost Accounting." . How can I troubleshoot in more details?
Thank you
