Intercompany trade and non-trade

Posted on by 275
Hi all,
 
It may have been discussed before and if so, please share the forum link.
Probably 3 years ago in BC online, where "Intercompany Code" was still on a standalone table or on company information, there was at least a workaround to toggle this.
"T" refers to trade while "NT" refers to non-trade.
  • Sending company (toggle from "T" to "NT") just before the user manually clicks on send at outbox level
  • Receiving company (because of that toggled change in setup "NT" in sending company), this will create an inbox with "NT" vendor
  • Receiving company can then create a "NT" purchase invoice from that inbox
With the recent update to intercompany setup and partners, I am unable to execute this workaround anymore.
Can anyone share some workaround to handle different types of transactions between intercompany (2 types - trade and non-trade) as clients have vendors/customers segregated into each type.
 
If there is no segregation, it is a breeze I agree and understand. Or is there any better suggestion on how to handle such situation using the enhanced intercompany features?

    Hello Jason,
     
    DEMO 1 = Sending company
    DEMO 2 = Receiving company
     
    The below workaround is not recommended if you have many intercompany transactions unless you can customize the changing of sending company intercompany code (Step#1).
     
    1. Before running 'Send IC Sales Order' from the sending company, you will need to change the 'Intercompany Code' to the correct setup based on Receiving company's intercompany partners.
    2. Below is my Sending company Intercompany Setup, so if this sales order is T related, then i will rename as 'DEMO_1_T'.
    3. In your 'Receiving Company' intercompany Setup, you will have the respective T and NT.
     
    Below is the result from the Receiving Company's intercompany inbox with TWO different vendor no. based on the T and NT relationship.
     
    If you looked at Step#3 Receving Company' Intercompany Setup. You can see that NT will be Vendor: V00020 and T = Vendor: V00010.

    I'm sorry, maybe I'm not familiar with the Intercompany function. I haven't seen this function in BC ("T" to "NT"). It seems to be available in AX.
    It would be helpful if you could provide screenshots from previous BCs.
     
    Hopefully other experts can give you better advice.
    Thanks
