Company (AP00.4)

Use Company (AP00.4) to define and maintain accounts payable companies. You assign the company to a vendor group and a pay group, and select invoice entry options. Before you can define an Accounts Payable company, it must first be a valid company in the General Ledger application. The Accounts Payable company uses the name and company base currency defined for the General Ledger company.

A General Ledger company must exist for each Accounts Payable company you define. For example, if you have only one General Ledger company, you can have only one Accounts Payable company. You can, however, have multiple General Ledger companies and only one Accounts Payable company.

On the Workflow tab, you must mark Workflow as Yes to set Distribution Adjustments to Yes. When you set Distribution Adjustments to Yes, approval of all distribution adjustments is required. Selecting this option will allow you to access Distribution Approvals (AP36.2).
