After you fill in the IC Chart of Accounts window with the chart of accounts that you and your intercompany partners have agreed to use, you need to associate each of the intercompany G/L accounts with one of your company's G/L accounts. In the IC Chart of Accounts window, you specify how intercompany G/L accounts on incoming transactions will be translated into accounts from your company's chart of accounts.
When you create an intercompany sales or purchase line to send as an outgoing transaction, you will enter an account from the IC chart of accounts as a default for which account in your partner's company the amount should be posted to.
If any of the accounts in the intercompany chart of accounts have the same account number as the corresponding accounts in your company's chart of accounts, then you can have the program automatically map the accounts:
Open the IC Chart of Accounts window.
Select the lines that you want to map automatically and then click Functions, Map to Acc. with Same Number.
For each intercompany G/L account that was not mapped automatically:
Fill in the Map-to G/L Acc. No. field.
Now you can set up default IC partner G/L accounts.
