General ledger posting by sales warehouse division

To post to the general ledger by sales warehouse division during invoice processing, the Use Sales Warehouse and Override Division # Default of the Order options must be selected in SA Administrator Options.

If you specify a sales warehouse on a sales order, the Sales Warehouse division is associated with the order at order creation. This division is used throughout the system to balance non-inventory accounts. The sales warehouse division overrides the customer or warehouse division that is selected in the Division # Default From field in SA Administrator Options-Documents-Sales Orders- Entry Settings.

If you use divisionalized accounting, additional account setup is not required to post to the sales warehouse division during invoice processing. If you do not use divisionalized accounting, you must set up your accounts to accommodate the Sales Warehouse feature. You can specify an asterisk, or wild card, in the division section when you set up account numbers. You can specify account numbers with a wild card in these functions:

• SA Order Entry Addon Setup
• SA Sales Use Tax Setup: Federal, State, County, City, Other
• SA Goods and Services Tax Setup
• SA Value Added Tax Setup
• Customer Setup: Customer General Ledger Control Account
• Product General Ledger Distribution Setup: Income Statement accounts

If Warehouse or Prod Cat/Whse is selected in the Income Statement field in SA Administrator Options-Product-Costs, the warehouse specified on Product General Ledger Distribution Setup records determines the correct accounts when the sales warehouse is loaded on the order.
