Your customer has a large number of legal entities. The legal entity values are defined in the company segment
and the primary balancing segment. They want to easily create eliminating entries for their intercompany
activity.
What should you recommend?
A.
There is no need to define an intercompany segment, the Intercompany module keeps track of the trading
partners for you based on the intercompany rules you define.
B.
Define an intercompany segment and qualify it as the second balancing segment to make sure all entries
are balanced for the primary balancing segment and intercompany segment.
C.
There is no need to define an intercompany segment. You can track the intercompany trading partner using
distinct intercompany receivable/payable natural accounts to identify the trading
partner.
D.
Define an intercompany segment in the chart of accounts. The Intercompany module and the Intercompany
balancing feature in general ledger and subledger accounting will automatically populate the intercompany
segment with the balancing segment value of the legal entity with which you are trading.
