I am on Baan Vc.

I am trying to have multiple Invoice To roles for a single customer by attaching different sales offices. Each Invoice To record has different Financial BP Group and each Financial BP Group has different Control A/C linked.

So, with this setup, I raise 2 sales orders - both with separate Sales Offices and hence separate BP groups and hence different Control a/c. When I finalise the batch after doin process in cisli, I get posting to the default role (one without Department attached) always.

I want to control my postings to Control a/c by maintaining multiple INvoice-To roles for same Business Partner.

Can someone tell me if I am doin something wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,

The possibility of having multiple records for INVOICE TO roles makes me feel that you would be able to split posting to different control a/c by specifying department in sales order.

Can anyone say whether my expectation is too ambitious?

Thanks in advance

Only an idea.
You wrote that you defined different sales offices for the invoice- to BP.
I had a look at Baan-Help and think you should define accounting offices per invoice- to BP.
Did no testing, just a hint.

As far as i remember , Finance supports only one accounting department which is specified in the company parameters(i guess) . so while picking up control account , it will try to post to the role linked to the accounting department . if it is not found then it is posted to blank role .

Hi Zubair,

I also feel that only one a/c office per finance company can be effective.

Reg multiple values for INvoice-to roles, I tried simulating. But did not work. It always posted to the Invoice - To role that contains no department.

I feel this will work only in case of a multi-finance setup.
