Enhancements to inter-entity bill back

Inter-entity bill back accurately records transactions between two entities in the same organization. When one entity sells goods or services to another, the receiving entity automatically gets an AP supplier invoice to process and pay. This ensures both sides of the transaction are recorded correctly.

Entity-level transactions are now supported

Streamline your inter-entity accounting when your organization transacts at the entity level only. You can now record bill back transactions in the specific entities.

With this enhancement:

  • Post AR sales invoices for bill back in the respective entity.
  • View the resulting bill back transaction details when you select the Record generator ID link in the AR sales invoice.

How it works

  1. Complete this form to get inter-entity bill back for entity-level transactions turned on for your organization.

    You'll be notified after it's turned on.

  2. Create AR sales invoices at the entity level.

  3. Select the bill back options for the AR sales invoice.

  4. After posting, the system creates a corresponding AP supplier invoice for the entity that's associated with the customer on the AR sales invoice.

Changes to editable fields

Now when an AR sales invoice is used for inter-entity bill back, you cannot edit the following fields after posting: 

  • Account

  • Transaction amount

  • Base amount

  • Allocation

  • Department

  • Location

This helps ensure that the data from the AR sales invoice stays in alignment with the corresponding inter-entity AP supplier invoice.
