Hi,

Is it possible to keep the FA posting profile offset account blank/nil and then be able to acquire an asset through PO invoicing for current and tax book?

Hi,

The offset account is not a mandatory field, but not sure if there is a validation when posting. Anyway, regardless of the setting, using a PO, the offset account will not be used.

Hi Andre,

Thanks for your response. I would prefer to keep the offset account under the Acq posting profile as nil/blank for current and tax book but it ends up with an error 'Account number for transaction type Fixed assets, credit does not exist' when posting PO invoice.

HI,

Offset account is optional.

So when you acquire asset through PO then the offset is your vendor payable but only for current book.

Now for Tax book you would require Offset account because when you post PO invoice system posts acquisition to one book only which is lets say current.

Now if you have derived book Tax , system will try to look for both account and offset account in this case it would require offset account and thats why you must be getting the error

so you can keep blank for current but for auto posting of Tax layer you would require because system during invoice posts only at one layer

Hi Arvind,

Thank you for your detailed response. Since the Tax account is required to be updated due to the derived books, it has been configured to FA Clearing account which would end up post it to the Tax layer as below:

Dr- Asset Account (Posting layer Tax)

Cr- FA Clearing Account (Posting layer Tax)

How would the FA Clearing main account be Debit then?
