NAV 2016 - Intercompany Transactions

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi All, 

Do we have any add-on available, where at the time of creating Sales Order, Purchase Orders can be created automatically in another company?

The reason of this requirement is, managing the IC transactions via Inbox / Outbox is very much time consuming and also finding duplicate entries at times.

Regards,

Vishal Salot

    Hi Vishal, 

    I know that it's a bit of an old thread but I came across a similar requirement and I managed it this way:

    1. At the end of the CreateOutboxSalesDocTrans function (in "ICInboxOutboxMgt" codeunit), I called a new function to:

    a. Set the line action to "Send to IC Partner" on "IC Outbox Transaction"
    b. Run the "IC Outbox Export" codeunit
    c. Create a "Job Queue Entry" record (non recurring) in the partner company (that's the only time I use CHANGECOMPANY), where the relevant fields are sent in the parameter string to get the corresponding "IC Inbox Transaction"

    2. The above "Job Queue Entry" calls a new codeunit in the partner company that will:

    a. Get the "IC Inbox Transaction" record
    b. Set the line action to "Accept" on "IC Inbox Transaction"
    c. Run the "Complete IC Inbox Action" report in silent mode

    I think that's the cleanest way to handle this as it avoids to change the company at every single trigger during the action completion, and the code footprint is minimal.

    Regards

    Hi Vishal,

    Please can you let me know which codeunits you modified to achieve this. I am trying to do the same automation of Intercompany.

    Thanks.

    I have made some customizations, which has reduced 4 steps and related time...

    While clicking on Sales Order > Send IC Sales Order Cnfrm., it will automatically trigger

    1) "IC Outbox Transactions" > Send to IC Partner and then

    2) Complete Line Actions...

    This would automatically create the Inbox transactions in other legal entity.

    Further running the JOB in another entity, it will automatically trigger

    3) Set Line Action > Accept and then

    4) Complete Line Actions...  which will automatically create the Purchase Order in other company.

    This would reduce at-least 4 click and would ensure timely availability of documents in other entities.

    Hi Jonathan,

    Actually, I am looking for more automated way of handling Intercompany Transactions like Sales Order, Journal between multiple companies in NAV.

    As of now, we are managing the Intercompany transactions via IC Inbox Transactions & IC Outbox Transactions, which is time consuming & multi-steps process.

    What I am looking for is, while creating sales order in one company, Purchase order should be created automatically without going through Inbox / Outbox....
