Specifies the general business posting group of the vendor.

The program automatically retrieves the code from the Gen. Bus. Posting Group field on the purchase header.

When you post the purchase line, the program will use the business code, in combination with the general product posting group code on the purchase line, to refer to the General Posting Setup and determine the G/L accounts (for different discount types and so on) to which transactions involving the items on this line are posted.

Normally, you should not change the contents of this field but it may be necessary in special cases where the default code is not appropriate.
