To enable the generation of the representing entities:

  1. Go to Setup > Accounting > Intercompany Preferences.

  2. In the Representing Entities subtab, check the Automatically Generate Representing Entities box.

Generating the Representing Entities

To generate the representing entities:

  1. Go to Setup > Company > Subsidiaries.

  2. On the Subsidiaries page, click Generate Representing Entities.

  3. Go to Setup > Accounting > Intercompany Preferences.

  4. On the Accounting tab:

    1. From the Receivables Account list, select a receivables account.

    2. From the Payables Account list, select a payables account.
