To define business partner financial details by financial company

When defining business-partner financial details, for the financial business partner roles you must define default details that apply to the entire company structure, and details that apply to specific financial companies. Within each financial company, you can define role data by department.

To define specific business partner financial details for the financial companies, complete these steps:

  1. Set up default accounting offices for the financial companies.

    See To create an accounting office.

    The financial company’s accounting office is defined in the Finance Company Parameters (tfgld0503m000) session.

  2. Switch to the financial company, or the company of type Both, for which you want to define financial business partner data.
  3. In the Business Partners (tccom4500m000) session, define a new business partner or select the business partner for which to specify financial data.

  4. In the Business Partner (tccom4100s000) session, click one of these role buttons to start the corresponding session. The procedure is similar for each role.

    • Invoice-to

      Starts the Invoice-to Business Partner (tccom4112s000) session.

    • Pay-by

      Starts the Pay-by Business Partner (tccom4114s000) session.

    • Invoice-from

      Starts the Invoice-from Business Partner (tccom4122s000) session.

    • Pay-to

      Starts the Pay-to Business Partner (tccom4124s000) session.
  5. Enter the default business partner details. When specifying the first role specific data, the Department field is blank and unavailable. This is because the default business partner details apply to all departments of all companies of your multicompany environment.
  6. Save the data.

  7. Click New to specify a new instance of the business partner role, this time defining the financial business-partner role data for the current financial company or company of type Both.

  8. Select the financial company’s accounting office in the Department field. The financial data related to the accounting office applies to all transactions that involve the current financial company or company of type Both.
  9. Specify the other business partner role details that are specific for the financial company as required and save the data.
  10. Optionally, click New to define another instance of the business partner role related to one of the other departments of the current financial company or company of type Both.
  11. In the Department field, select the department to which the financial role data applies.
  12. Specify the financial data as required and save the data.
  13. Optionally, repeat steps 10 to 12 to define specific business partner financial data for any other departments of the current financial company.
  14. Repeat steps 2 to 4 and 7 to 13 to define specific business partner financial data for each financial company for which specific data is required. The default data defined in steps 5 and 6 applies to all companies. Therefore, the Department field is available when defining role data for the second and subsequent companies.
Note: 

When defining financial business-partner data, these rules apply:

  • If the database tables of your multicompany environment are shared, you can work in any of the financial companies to define the financial business-partner role data. After you have defined the default financial business-partner role data for the entire multicompany environment, you can also work in the logistic company to define the financial data by department. See the Infor LN User Guide for Table Sharing (lncomtableshug).

  • The setting of the Credit Limit Check Per Department check box in the Business Partner (tccom4100s000) session determines whether you can specify a credit limit by financial company or for all companies of your multicompany structure.

    See The business partner's credit limit.
