      Hello
      Looking into how Inter company process works.  We have 3 companies ,running Wennsoft for job cost tracking,…..that do work for each other.
      Currently, we generate a job invoice in company “A” that then gets manually entered into company “B” payables.
      Then company “B” generates a check to pay the company “A”. 
      Company “A” then posts the receipt of the check from company “B”.
      Was hoping that the intercompany process would help us to automate this, but I am only seeing reference to GL and AP transactions.
      Can this be automated within GP?

      Thank you

      Mary,
      Most of the inter-company functionality is just at the GL level.  If you own SmartConnect, you could create maps to pull from Company A tables to create the applicable docs in Company B.  Or check out SOP to POP by Nolan and see if that is closer to what you need:

      Mary, do you have any kind of approval structure for these invoices? If not, using SmartConnect would be the easiest solution, especially if you simply use GL invoices on the AP side of your InterCo. If you don’t own SmartConnect, you can always use eConnect, but that would require someone with SQL knowledge on your team setting it up.

      Hi Mary,

      As Windi had mentioned, based on your challenge our IC POP To SOP sounds like it would be able to help. Feel free to reach out to me to learn more and we do have videos available on our website as well. 

      Best regards,

      Mary,

      Based on the fact that your using Wennsoft JC and the other comments, not sure if in the destination company these PO’s and SO’s need to tie to a Wennsoft JC but if they do I would go the route of SmartConnect.  With Nolan you could do this as well but the issue with Nolan that I foresee is that it is only good for the POP to SOP piece where with SmartConnect if you have other elements you need to integrate to at least you can do it with SC and avoid having 2 solutions.  Not to mention I’m not sure that Nolan works with Wennsoft out of the box.

      Using something like SC you could either have the integration be a real-time event (POP is created in Source Company and status changed to Released) or a scheduled job or manually invoked by a user.  The best approach to this model is that you have flexibility.

      We setup something similar for a customer running Wennsoft where a Sales Invoice posted in Company A creates a payable voucher in Company B.  When the voucher is paid in Company B a Cash Receipt is created in Company A.  We went the route of looking at Posted documents to avoid an issue where a transaction is started or edited in 1 company and then we would need to remove the transaction in the destination company.  Figuring that posted transactions can’t be changed but could be voided at least lends itself to less edits/room for error.

      Just my 2 cents.  I know that Wennsoft has eConnect nodes as well so if you do need these transactions to hit JC in the various companies using SC it can.
