Grant Access to Intercompany Accounts Based on Company
By default, each account you create is unavailable to any company, including the active company, until you specify access rights for it. You must specify which companies can access each of the intercompany accounts you create.
Warning: Use care when you determine which companies can access the intercompany
accounts that you create. When another company processes a transaction involving one of these
accounts, it is not possible for you to revoke access.
To specify access to intercompany accounts:
- Select the active company.
- On the Navigation menu, click in the browser application.
- Select the intercompany accounts receivable account.
-
On the General tab of the
Accounts form, specify which companies, if any, can access the
account:
Option Description To make the account available globally Select the Available to All Companies option. To make the account available to a set of companies that you specify Click Insert on the Company Access grid and enter rows to specify which companies in the enterprise may use the account. - Click Save.

accounts:
- Accounts payable

- Cash-basis suspense (if you are using detailed subledgers for intercompany billing and you are using cash-basis reporting)
