Resolution
Derive Trading Partner Number from Counterparty for Journal Entry:
- With this feature, the trading partner number can be derived from the business partner data of the counterparty of the financial transaction during the posting of a treasury flow and assigned to the Company ID of Trading Partner field in the journal entry item. To achieve this, a substitution rule must be defined in the Additional Account Assignments - Substitution Rules configuration app.
- Without utilizing this feature, the Company ID of Trading Partner field in the journal entry item contains the company ID of the payer/payee making the payment. This can result in a different business partner being recorded as the counterparty of the financial transaction, such as in cases where payments are made by subsidiaries of a corporate group or other similar situations.
- The new target field, Trading Partner No. (PartnerCompany), is now available in the Additional Account Assignments - Substitution Rules configuration app.
- Additionally, the new function BusinessPartner2PartnerCompany(…) is available in the Additional Account Assignments - Substitution Rules configuration app. This function can be used to derive the Trading Partner No. from the business partner data of the counterparty of a financial transaction for the target field Trading Partner No. (PartnerCompany).
- The derived value is then assigned to the Company ID of Trading Partner field in the journal entry item of a treasury flow.
