Country Codes/Posting Groups Mapping

Fields

If your participating companies represent different countries, you probably do not want to roll out the posting groups of your customers and vendors identically to all companies. For example, an AT vendor can be a domestic vendor in one company, an EU vendor in another, and an export vendor in a third company. Therefore, there is an option to replicate posting groups differently to individual companies during replication, depending on the Country/Region Code and target company. The setup is done centrally in the master data company and applies across all companies. For each combination of company group or company, type, and country/region code, you define which posting groups should be used when replicating to the target company.

Important

This setup is global and must be stored in the master data company. Setting it up in a target company has no effect on replication.

Important

Overrides can be defined per company group or per individual company. If a company-specific override exists, it takes precedence over a company group override.

Important

The company must belong to exactly one replication company group for group-based overrides to work correctly. If a company belongs to more than one group, an error will occur during replication.

Fields
Company Group	Specifies the replication company group this mapping applies to. All companies in this group will receive the posting groups defined here instead of those from the master data company. Note Either Company Group or Company must be specified — not both.
Company	Specifies an individual company this mapping applies to. Takes precedence over a company group override if both are defined for the same type and country/region code. Note Either Company Group or Company must be specified — not both.
Type	Determines whether this line applies to customers or vendors. There is no option to create lines that apply to both types of personal accounts at the same time.
Country/Region Code	The country/region code stored for the corresponding customer or vendor. When replicating a record with this country/region code to the relevant company, the posting groups defined in this line will be used.
General Business Posting Group	This General Business Posting Group will be applied when replicating the corresponding customers/vendors to the target company. If you leave the field empty, the General Business Posting Group from the master data company record will be used.
VAT Business Posting Group	This VAT Business Posting Group will be applied when replicating the corresponding customers/vendors to the target company. If you leave the field empty, the VAT Business Posting Group from the master data company record will be used.
Customer/Vendor Posting Group	This Customer/Vendor Posting Group will be applied when replicating the corresponding customers/vendors to the target company. If you leave the field empty, the customer or vendor posting group from the master data company record will be used.
