Set up Import Vendor

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 60

Hi all,

Setting up the vendors today for Aust no issues there

However I am stuck with regards to my overseas Vendors, we import a lot of our items to make up the BOM.

Now in setting up those Vendors  I have a choice of DOMESTIC or EXPORT in the General Business Posting Group and the Vendor Posting Group there is nothing for IMPORT.

Yes I can setup a new one but trying to think where do I code the GL codes too? (if this is the correct thing to do)

looked on the forum but if i search for import vendors all i get as you would expect is HOW to import.

Any pointers in the right direction would be welcome.

Thank you

Tez

    Hi,

    To define the GL account for new Import posting group, you can refer the already created, but ofcourse you need to take new GL account.

    Thanks.

    For purchase transactions the G/L posting are generally decided by these setups.

    General posting setup

    Vendor posting group

    Inventory posting group

    Vat posting setup.

    If you qualify all those setups you should be good to go when it comes to posting vendor transactions.

    Hope this helps you further.
