Comparing Receivables and Payables between Affiliated Companies

Description

This program is implemented in Financial Accounting and used to check at regular intervals the financial accounting documents created for business transactions within the corporate group.

The objective of this program is to ensure that the incoming and outgoing documents from business transaction made within the corporate group match.

In doing this, the program accesses the documents within one client of a system. The documents are compared in transaction currency in order to avoid translation differences.

Accounting -> Financial accounting -> Accounts receivable -> Periodic processing -> Closing -> Check/count -> Comp: aff. companies

Accounting -> Financial accounting -> Accounts payable -> Periodic processing -> Closing -> Check/count -> Comp: aff. companies
