To prepare your organization for intercompany trade, you must define the vendors and customers with whom you will be trading internally. You must then associate these vendors and customers with the items that you'll be purchasing or selling.
Go to Procurement and sourcing > Vendors > All vendors.
Select the vendor to define as an intercompany vendor.
On the Action Pane, on the General tab, select Intercompany.
Specify intercompany setup parameters for the vendor account. These parameters include the customer legal entity and account, sales order policies, purchase order policies, value mapping, and purchase agreement and sales agreement policies. You also specify whether to use base data values from the vendor account or from the customer account in the other legal entity.
Go to Product information management > Products > Released products.
On the Released products list page, select the items to assign to the vendor, so that the items are available for intercompany trade. For each item, open the Released product details page. On the Purchase tab, in the Vendor field, type the vendor number.
Go to Accounts receivable > Customers > All customers.
Select the customer to define as an intercompany customer.
On the Action Pane, on the General tab, select Intercompany.
Specify intercompany setup parameters for the customer account. These parameters include the vendor legal entity and account, purchase order policies, sales order policies, value mapping, and sales agreement and purchase agreement policies. You also specify whether to use base data values from the customer account or from the vendor account in the other legal entity.
When you're done setting up the intercompany parameters, close the Intercompany page to return to the selected customer details.
Expand the Miscellaneous details FastTab and set Create intercompany orders to Yes. If you also want orders to be delivered directly to customers, set Direct delivery to Yes.
Note
If there are some items that your organization stocks and delivers to customers, you might not want to create intercompany orders automatically, even when you have the item in stock. To deactivate the automatic generation of orders for items that you might sometimes have in stock, set Create intercompany orders to No.
If you want to allow extra lines to be created indirectly on a sales order, set Create indirect order lines to Yes. A user can then add lines to the original sales order from the intercompany sales order.
Warning
If you allow order lines to be created indirectly, you're permitting all additions to the original sales order from the intercompany sales order. Each addition is then processed through to the customer, and is added to the order and the invoice. Additionally, every document that is involved in the sale is printed and posted automatically. Users aren't alerted about the addition.
