We have setup the intercompany for our two companies in the originating company. I have entered a payables transactions, but when it is posted the JE is not in the destination company. Is there anything else that needs to be setup?

Exactly what I was asking. I was thinking it would Auto"magically" appear in the other company. I see now when I just tried a test that it works if there is a line entry to the destination company.
Thanks.
No GL entry is going to happen in the destination company unless you have an account keyed to that destination company (using the destination company ID) on the transaction from the originating company. Is that what you are asking?
I was under the assumption that if the set up for intercompany was done, an entry could be keyed on the originating company, and by clicking inter company, the destination company would also receive an entry.
I have also tried this by entering the corresponding company id and it does not create the second entry.
Does there have to be a separate line item in the originating company batch coded to the destination company in order for the entry to create on the destination company?
I don't have anything in batch recovery for the entries.
I just tried this in a test environment and was able to successfully process.
Here's what my setup looks like (disregard the actual account numbers since I just selected them blindly).
1. Intercompany Setup window
2. Entered a payables transaction and made sure to tick the Intercompany checkbox on the main transaction window. Below is a screenshot of my distributions. I've got part of the expense going to the originating company and the rest going to a second destination company.
3. I saved the transaction and then posted the batch.
4. I switched over to the company and opened up the Financial Batches and can see the ICTRX batch.
An additional thing to keep in mind. If you inquire on the payables transaction after it's been posted, you'll only see the due to/from account listed in the distributions window.
Also, one other thing to possibly check would be Batch Recovery in both the originating and destination companies to make sure the system isn't thinking something is missing.
I am having the exact same issue with a journal entry not flowing thru to the destination company.
Not sure what else needs to be set up if anything.
Hopefully someone else can add to the discussion as I don't really know of anything else that would need to be set up in order to get it to work. Have you tried attempting to do just a small intercompany JE and posting it to see if it flows over to the destination companies?
Could you possibly take a screenshot of your intercompany setup and the transaction you did and paste them here? That may help shed some light on what is happening.
Yes, it is the GP intercompany.
Hmm, there really isn't much else to it. Just to confirm, this is the GP intercompany and not a 3rd party intercompany module?
No, I have already posted the batch in the originating company. Yes, we are setup to post through the GL. I printed out the payable transaction journal & intercompany distribution summary after posting the batch. The intercompany distribution show both companies.
