Inter-branch account mapping (GL101010)

This topic gives you information about the elements that you find in this window in Visma.net ERP, such as fields, field values, buttons, and check boxes.

By using this window, you can select a posting ledger for each newly added branch. Also, if the Inter-branch transactions functionality is activated in your system, you can specify the rules to be used to automatically balance transactions that occur between different branches in the organisation.

The top part

By using the elements in this area, for a recently added branch, you can select a posting ledger. Also, you can select a branch to define the rules to be used to automatically generate transactions for each inter-branch transaction originated in this branch.

Element	Description
Originating branch	The branch for which you define the rules for auto-generating transactions to balance any inter-branch transaction originating in this branch. You can select one of the existing branches that are defined in the Branches (CS102000) window.
Posting ledger	The posting ledger of the Actual type for the selected branch.

The Transaction in originating branch tab

This tab is available only if the Inter-branch transactions functionality is activated in your system.
On this tab, you can specify the rules to be used to generate balancing transactions in the originating branch or the branch that initiates an inter-branch transaction.

The originating branch is always the branch specified in the top part of the document to be balanced, and each of the branches specified in the document lines are destination branches.

For each destination branch, you can specify a range of accounts (or multiple ranges) and map each of these ranges to a specific offset account (and subaccount) in the originating branch. Then, if an inter-branch transaction refers to an account in one of the specified ranges in any destination branch, the system will generate a new balancing transaction in the originating branch for the respective offset account. Such offset accounts are often called Inter-branch receivables.

Column	Description
Destination branch	The branch specified in the line of the original document to be balanced.
Account from	The destination branch's account that starts the account range for mapping.
Account to	The destination branch's account that ends the account range for mapping.
Offset account	The account to be used in the originating branch to offset the inter-branch transactions on the accounts of the specified range in the destination branch.
Offset subaccount	The corresponding subaccount to be used for balancing transactions in the originating branch.

The Transaction in destination branch tab

This tab is available only if the Inter-branch transactions functionality is activated. By using this tab, you can specify the rules to be used to generate balancing transactions in each of the destination branches.

An originating branch is always the branch specified in the top part of the document to be balanced, and each of the branches specified in the document lines are destination branches.

For each destination branch, you can specify a range of accounts (or multiple ranges) in the destination branch and map each of these ranges to a specific offset account (and subaccount) in the destination branch. Then, if an inter-branch transaction refers to an account in one of the specified ranges in specific destination branch, the system will generate a balancing transaction in this destination branch for the specified offset account. These offset accounts are often called Inter-branch payables.

Column	Description
Destination branch	The branch specified in the line of the original document to be balanced.
Account from	The destination branch's account that starts the account range for mapping.
Account to	The destination branch's account that ends the account range for mapping.
Offset account	The account to be used in the destination branch to offset the inter-branch transactions on the accounts of the specified range.
Offset subaccount	The corresponding subaccount to be used for balancing transactions in the destination branch.
