Documentation

Definition

Indicates that for postings with the document type selected, you can enter the partner company manually.

Use

The manual entry of the partner company is only required in special cases since it is normally transferred from the master record of one of the accounts included in the document.

The indicator should be considered together with the indicator 'Cross-Company'.

  • Indicator 'Partner Company Ready for Input' set, indicator 'Cross- Company' not set:

    You can enter the partner company for the whole document. However, you can only do this for pure G/L account postings where there is no partner company in the account master record (otherwise the partner company from the master record is used). The partner company entered at document level is copied into all line items.

  • Indicators 'Partner Company Ready for Input' and 'Cross-Company' both set:

    Documents can be posted cross-company and you can enter the partner company for G/L account items manually. You enter the partner company at item level via 'Extras -> Additional Data'.
