Intercompany Transaction and Distribution Reference

Posted on by Bill Campbell 22,647

I have not been able to find anyone else asking this in the GP forum, so here goes.

We recently started using Intercompany -  set up with out an issue - client is able to enter transactions and gets the data posted to the other company database with out issue.

However while doing a review of the posting journals and the resulting JE entries in both company databases GL we noticed that the Distribution Reference entered at the time of the entry of the Payables transactions does not appear to carry over to the other company and in addition when the parent company (lack of a better name) reviews the JE created, the distributions are (1) different and (2) do not contain the distribution reference.

Wondering if anyone else has seen this, and better, is there a solution that will allow the data to come over as entered.  This is very important as now with intercompany posting, the auditors are going to see a lot more JE via the Due to Due From accounts and the client will need the reference.

    I believe Microsoft would look at it as having provided additional functionality.  The IC functionality has been the way you describe for many versions and is a reason a client of mine stuck with a different IC module.

    I did test on my system the 2015 functionality.

    So that I am clear - currently in GP2013 R2 when you enter the Distribution Reference in detail for each line of the transaction - the system while posting is stripping that off the information that it is sending to the other company database before it posts?

    Then in GP2015 that very important detail has been repaired?

    I need to have this confirmed as the clients that have now implemented Intercompany are none too pleased.

    GP 2015 offers this functionality.  Otherwise, you'll need to use an ISV solution.
