Save time by setting up Customer/Vendor Consolidations in Dynamics GP

In most businesses, we come across the situation where a vendor is become a customer to us and vice versa. In these types of cases, we will need to consolidate the customer and vendor activity so that we get a true view of balance. In this article, I'm going to show you how you can consolidate vendor and customer invoice using Microsoft Dynamics GP in 2 parts. 


Setting up Customer/Vendor Consolidations
Path: MSDGP > Tools > Setup > Company > Customer/Vendor Setup

1.   Assign a Suspense Account that will act as an offset account between the Receivables and Payables. This account is used whenever the customer/vendor transactions are posted as offset account. This account should not have balance at all time.

2.   Assign Default Vendor and Customer Classes to be mapped when a vendor or customer is auto-created using Customer/Vendor Maintenance.
3.   Select [Relationships] to map the Vendor and Customer Relationship.

4.   In this example, assume we have Customer – KEL001 who is also vendor to us. Once we enter KEL001 in Customer ID, click Create Vendor, Vendor ID – KEL001 will be auto-created.
 
5.   Select [OK] to save the setting.


To Consolidate 2 transactions from Payables and Receivables
Payables for $1000 for the Vendor KEL001,
Receivables for $1000 for the Customer KEL001.
We need to consolidate the documents using Customer/Vendor Transactions. 
Path: Transactions > Sales > Customer/Vendor Transactions

1.   Once the Customer ID KEL001 is entered and select the Consolidate Documents, it’ll list all transactions for KEL001 that includes both Payables and Receivables.
2.   If Transfer to Payables is selected, Only the Receivables transactions would be displayed and If Transfer to Receivables is selected, only Payables transactions would be displayed.
3.   Now, select the Consolidate Documents select the required documents by marking document and post it, it’d update both Receivables and Payables documents with the prefix mentioned in Setup.
4.   The account distribution for invoices consolidation would be as follows:-
 
In RM Module:
Default Suspense A/c                     Dr   $1000
 
   To Accounts Receivable A/c            CR      $1000
 
In PM Module:
Accounts Payable A/c                     Dr   $1000 


   To Default Suspense A/c                  CR     $1000
 
 
5.   To check the document status at Inquiry > Transaction by Vendor screen.

6.   Clicking the Description Expansion button would open the related Receivables Document Inquiry window as below.

How to Create Recurring Transaction in Dynamics GP

If you have a handful of journal entries to be created in regular basis, whether for  numerous accruals and reversals,  allocation, or reclassification entries, setting up Recurring Transaction in Dynamics GP will be helpful and speed up your month end process. Step 1 - Setup Recurring Batch Path: Transaction > Financial > Batches  i.    After entering the " Batch ID " and " Comment ", setting up the " Frequency " is the most important part for recurring transaction. " Single Use " is the one we use all the time for single posting, once posted, the batch will remove from Batch ID. But if you set the Frequency to " Monthly ", which means the batch automatically becomes a recurring batch, the batch will be there forever for multiple posting. ii.    There is another useful option here, " Clear Recurring Amounts ", which will clear the amounts in journal entries after the posting.

GP How to Reconcile Payable/ Receivable Ledger to General Ledger Control Account using "Reconcile to GL"

The “Reconcile to GL” tool helps you find differences between Payables Management (and GL) and Receivables Management (and GL) automatically by coming out a report. The Rule of Thumb, GL balance for the AP Control Account should match up with the total on the Payable Ledger report and the GL balance for the AR Control Account should match the total on the Receivables Ledger report.  "Reconcile to GL" will match each transaction between GL and Sub-ledger based on the setup account and posting date.  Any transactions that don’t match and users have to start digging through detailed transactions to see what went wrong, “Reconcile to GL” can be helpful in this scenario. To perform Payable/Receivable Reconciliation Path: Microsoft Dynamics GP > Tools > Routines > Financial > Reconcile to GL     1.       Type in your date range.     2.       Select “Module”, either Payable Management or Receivable Management. ...
