Ledger account in Purchase Order line

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by lally 10

Hi ,

You can define it in PO (per line), at PO Line>Line Details>Posting>Ledger Account

In which case the ledger account is enabled , in my system when i select the item code ( product type- Item ) , but the ledger account field is not enabled.

Can you guide me ?

    You can change the GL account when you are creating a PO for a "Purchase Category" rather than a "Product"

    You can either select a Procurement category or item number when creating purchase orders now. Using Procurement category will activate this Field for accounting purposes since this will not reffer to an item and get the posting data from there.

    The item you allready know about, but what's New for AX 2012 is the possibility of using the procurement hierarchies to do purchases.

    So you don't have to cludder your item register with all types of knick knacks, but still enforce a procurement strategy where EVERYTHING has to have a purchase order. Quite neet.

    Great post on the topic:

    Remember that you can handle the accounting principles Down to each and every item and not only on the item group level... But you probably knew that allready. ;)

    Hi Lally,

    In addition to the anwsers above:

    - If you have an item where the item model group has been setup as not stocked it is possible to edit the ledger account.

    - If it is stocked, but the fields on the item model group  'Post physical inventory' and 'Post financial inventory' are disabled it is possible to edit the ledger account.

    There are some exceptions:

    If an asset id is used or the line is linked to a project or it is a subcontract from the lean manufacturing it is NOT possible to edit the ledger account.
