Payment Consolidation and Delivery Consolidation - BP Master

[Former Member]

Hi,

BP Master has an option for Consolidating BP under the Accounting Tab. There are two options that follow: Payment Consolidation and Delivery Consolidation.

Can anyone help me by explaining how this option helps and where and how does the effect take place?

Hi Sudatta......

Read the below text......

There may be cases where you will need/want to consolidate the business activities carried out with
several business partners to specific business partner.

 Example

You have a customer who is chain store. Each branch is a separate business partner with whom you do business
(receive orders, issue deliveries, etc.) but the payments for the goods you deliver to the different branches are
 received from the main office of the chain store. In this scenario, the consolidating business partner is the business 
partner master data record that represents the main office, and the consolidation method will be Payment Consolidation. 
As a result, the A/R invoices you issue for the different branches, will be assigned to the main office business partner
 to pay.

End of the example.
Specify here the business partner to consolidate the transactions of this business partner.
 

Payment Consolidation Select to display invoices of business partners that are linked to the same consolidating business partner in the Incoming or Outgoing Payments window.

When the head office pays for all invoices sent for its branches. In a specific payment document, you can select the branch business partner directly.
 

Delivery Consolidation Select to display deliveries of business partners that are linked to the same consolidating business partner in the Invoice window.

When the head office is invoiced for all deliveries shipped to its branches. In a specific Invoice document, you can select the branch business partner directly.

In short this option is used when transactions involved more that 1 party.

Regards,

Rahul
