Re: Another G/L question with an A/P twist...

The reason is Purchase Management not necessarily Accounts Payable. A PM 
company is attached to a GL Company, but multiple AP companies can be attached 
to a GL. It is therefore possible that one pM company can service multiple AP 
companies (which share the same GL)!!
 
Hope that makes sense.

Subject: [SYSTEM21] Another G/L question with an A/P twist...


Greetings everyone, 
 
We're contemplating moving to one General Ledger. 
 
If you look at the code for Vendor maintenance (PL015) in A/P it won't let you 
add a vendor code to PLP05 if a vendor already exists within the same G/L 
company. Error message "USL0032 - Supplier code already exists within General 
Ledger" 
 
Using the SUPNAMGL logical file keyed on GLCO05/SUPN05/DSEQ05 the logic in 
program PL015 won't let you point the same vendor in multiple A/P companies to 
one G/L company. 
 
My question to the group is, "Why does this logic exist...?" What is the 
problem with having the same vendor in multiple A/P companies pointing to one 
consolidated G/L company...? I must be missing the bigger picture... 
 
Any feedback would be appreciated... 
 
Thanks.
