Documentation

Definition

Specifies that purchase account management is active in the system.

Use

A purchase account is required in some countries. This account records the value at which externally obtained materials should be posted.

If purchase account management is active, additional postings are carried out during the posting of receipts of goods and invoices:

  • The same amount is posted to the purchase account as to the balance sheet account. The offsetting entry is made to the purchasing offsetting account.
  • A freight purchase account has been defined, analogous to the purchase account. It documents the posted delivery costs of externally obtained materials.
