Overview
This tutorial covers entering, matching, posting, and verifying intercompany transactions in Financial Management.
Your company is closing its books for January 2007 and discovers that its Connecticut sales office owes $35,000 to its California sales office. You must enter and reconcile the intercompany transactions between the two sales offices. In the Intercompany Transaction module of Financial Management, you enter, match, post, and verify the intercompany payables and receivables transactions.
In this part of the tutorial you enter intercompany payables and receivables transactions for Connecticut.EastSales and California.West Sales.Before entering transactions, you open the period in which the transactions occur.
After entering the transactions, you match the transactions. The matching process ensures that all entries are entered and reconciles differences between the intercompany account balances. Finally, you post the intercompany transactions to include them in an account balance.
