Sub-Account by Site on Customer and Supplier Control Accounts
It has always been possible to report by sub-account within the general ledger. It is now possible to associate a sub-account with a site and to set the sub-account for postings against Customer and Supplier Control accounts based on the header site on sales and purchase orders. The AR/AP Sub-Account field in Site Maintenance enables you to specify a sub-account that is used to represent the site on invoices created for the site concerned.
Note: A full balance sheet by site is only possible by defining a separate entity per site.
In manual and automated flows, the sub-account in Site Maintenance overrides the sub-account defaulted from the supplier or the customer. This enables you to report based on site on the balance sheet and income statement. In customer and supplier invoices, the defaulted sub-account is displayed, based on the sales order or purchase order site.
This enhancement does not cover all site-specific balance sheet reporting. There are some tax and expense items receipts where defaulting does not occur. However, there are workarounds for these scenarios.
