Setting Up GL Intercompany Accounts

GL Intercompany Accounts tells Vista which due-to / due-from accounts to use when one company charges another in the same environment.

Before you start

  • More than one company exists in the environment.
  • You know the receivable and payable company pairs and the GL accounts for each direction.

Steps

  1. Open GL Intercompany Accounts.
  2. Enter the receivable GL company.
  3. Enter the payable GL company.
  4. Enter the GL account used when the receivable company charges the payable company.
  5. Repeat for every receivable/payable combination you need.
  6. After setup, post intercompany activity as usual; Vista creates the balancing intercompany entries from this map.

Notes

  • Missing combinations cause intercompany postings to fail or to post incorrectly.
  • Review balances on intercompany accounts periodically so they stay in sync across companies.
