Assign GL account to customers and or vendors

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 55

How do I setup General Ledger account codes for customers and vendors. Eq. Customer XZY is a customer I do some business consulting for, therefore all their invoices have the same GL account code.  Similarly I've a vendor called Telstra who supplies my telephones, mobiles and internet service, where Telstra invoices are always charged to the one GL account in the GL.

It would be great to know I could set up the general ledger posting account when I create a new customer and or vendor.

Looking forward to your replies.

Regards

Fred Walker

    In the Dynamics NAV or Business Central you do not bind the general ledger account directly to the customer or vendor, you  user use the Customer Posting Group or Vendor Posting Group and then assigned this group to the specific customer and vendor.  In this group there is either receivables g/l account or payables g/l account, i believe this is what you need.

    If you want to change the posting group for particular invoice, you can reassign the posting group right in the document.

    Many thanks for your replies, yes the suggestions on using Recurring purchase and sales lines gave me the solution I was looking for.

    Out of interest Fred do you know how to to assign set prices to recurring sales lines? Recurring sales lines are ok but our customers have set prices for each line so I want to have these set up rather than having to look them up each time

    What would the process look like for the Finance and Operations version of D365?
