Setting Up Supplier Accounts
Use Supplier Accounts Maintenance (2.3.7) to set up accounts—PO Receipts, Expensed Item Receipts—required in multinational environments to distinguish between PO receipts received from regular suppliers and those received from any intercompany suppliers. These accounts must be valid, active supplier accounts of type PO Receipts.

These accounts have no default values. If you specify a value, the system always uses it in preference to any other function that generates the related GL transaction.
If you leave the supplier account fields blank, the standard logic for determining account values is used. For inventory items, the system searches for a PO Receipts account, sub-account, and cost center in this order:
• A value defined for the item product line, site, and supplier type in Purchasing Account Maintenance (1.2.5)
• A value defined for the item product line in Product Line Maintenance (1.2.1)
• A value defined for the domain in Domain/Account Control (36.9.24)
For non-inventory items, the system uses the Expensed Item Receipts account from Domain/Account Control.
