About tracking financial transactions by affiliate entity dimension
Automatically track activity by the affiliate entity dimension on all automated inter-entity entries. Intacct still uses inter-entity account mapping to determine the due to and due from accounts for inter-entity transactions. Intacct then automatically applies the affiliate entity dimension to all automatically generated inter-entity entries.
For example, consider an inter-entity loan with a source entity of E101 and target entities E102 and E103. Intacct automatically applies the affiliate entity dimension to the inter-entity entries, as follows:
| Account | Location | Affiliate entity |
|---|---|---|
| IET Receivable | E101 | E102 |
| IET Receivable | E101 | E103 |
| IET Payable | E102 | E101 |
| IET Payable | E103 | E101 |
