Specifies the code for the general product posting group of the item or general ledger account on this line.

The program automatically retrieves the code from the Gen. Prod. Posting Group field on the item card or the G/L account card when the No. field on this purchase line is filled in.

When you post the purchase line, the program will use the product code, in combination with the general business 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 or G/L account 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.
