Accounting account determined by journal name

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hello,

Normally I count vendor invoice journals to an accounting account. I want some of these invoices - that of equipment, for instance -  to be counted in another accounting account. How can I get it? These invoices are counting with a journal that have another name journal.

    Hello Ludwig,

    Yes, it's what I thought, but I wanted to be sure before start system modifications. I don't think them to be small :(

    Thank you and best regards,

    Sara.

    Hello Sara A.,

    I would say that you need to implement a small system modification then.

    Probably talk this through with a developer and I believe he/she can help you out with that.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Thank you very much for your quick response.

    Unfortunately, in journal type settings is possible to set up the default offset account, but not the account, that is what I'm interested in. Offset account can be written in journal line, so it's easy to put an expense or an asset account. So the problem is not the offset account, but that vendor account is transparent, because what is written in journal line is vendor number. And it's the vendor account what I want to change.

    Hi Sara A.

    Thanks for this additional info.

    There are a couple of options that you can use.

    One possibility is setting up different invoice journals for ordinary invoices, asset invoices, etc. that all have a default offset account & account type setup.

    Another option is setting up default ledger accounts for vendors that automatically Default.

    Additional Options that might help you entering vouchers fast are mentioned here:

    Hope this helps,

    RE: Accounting account determined by journal name

    When a vendor invoice arrives, I go to the vendor module, option Journals --> Invoices --> Invoice's Journal, in Dynamics. Then I create a new journal and I decide what his journal name will be. It will depend on the type of invoice. If it is an expense invoice it will have a journal name, and if it is an asset invoice it will have another.

    The question is that when I register the jounal I want the accounting account to be diferent. The Vendor's account - the default one - is OK for expense invoices but if it is an asset invoice the account must be another one. If all my asset vendors were only asset vendors I could distinguish them by his Vend group, but most of my asset vendors are also expense vendor, so I can't.

    Hello Sara A.,

    Can you provide some more information on your process and what you are trying to do?

    It is not very clear what you are doing - record an inventory counting Journal or record invoices - and what shall be counted?

    Probably some screenprints might help.

    Many thanks,

    Ludwig
