If you use the features in the Purchases & Payables application area, you must create links to the general ledger accounts. The links are created by setting up one or more vendor posting groups. You can use the same general ledger account numbers or different account numbers for each posting group.

You must set up the necessary accounts in the Chart of Accounts window before you set up posting groups. For more information, see Set Up the Chart of Accounts.

To set up vendor posting groups

  1. In the Search box, enter Customer Posting Groups, and then choose the related link.

  2. In the Vendor Posting Groups window, fill in the various fields.

  3. Repeat this procedure for each posting group you want to set up. You can set up as many posting groups as you need.

After you have set up the vendor posting groups, you must enter a posting group code on each vendor card. For more information, see How to: Create a Vendor Card.
