Microsoft Dynamics AX creates a customer transaction when an intercompany customer invoice is posted. This customer transaction remains open until it is settled, which means that it has been paid. When the corresponding intercompany purchase order is invoice updated, a vendor transaction matching the customer transaction is created. This vendor transaction also remains open until it is settled. To reduce the risk of differences, an accounts receivable payment journal can be automatically created and posted when the accounts payable payment journal is posted.

  1. Click Sales and marketing > Common > Customers > All customers. On the Action Pane, on the General tab, click Intercompany.

  2. To set up the intercompany accounts receivable payments in the Intercompany form for sales orders, click the Sales order policies link.

  3. In the Payment journal field, select the accounts receivable payment journal that you want to register intercompany vendor payments to. You set this up in the Accounts receivable parameters form.

  4. If you want to post to this journal automatically, select the Post journal automatically check box.
