    We use different process levels to denote different GL companies.  The process level defaults the accrual account so that the off setting credit goes to an intercompany accrual account.  The process level is entered at the invoice header and the accrual code defaults to the what ever is set up at the AP00.5.  Invoices with multiple distribution lines might need to hit more than one accrual codes depending on the GL Distribution Company Code.  How do we use different accrual codes at the distribution line level?  An example would be a phone bill where that includes several lines going to different facilities associated with different GL Company Codes.

      Tom, I don't think that is possible, as the accrual code applies to the invoice. You might be able to workaround it either by looking at the intercompany entries that get created when the invoice is posted, or perhaps by using a distribution code on the lines.
      Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!

        So we could either create a query searching for entries in error then manually post a reclass for the intercompany entry, or we could create a distribution set that would automatically create a reclass in the distribution line when mixed process level invoices are vouched. I just want to make sure I understood correctly. I could see potential problems with both of these work arounds. Another question...are we using the process level function incorrectly? I remember from Lawson Trainings that the process level was created for the purpose to create the intercompany entries in the case that there are multiple GL Companies without having to create those same companies in AP. Is there a higher level of set up that can help with this or are we at the threshold?
