Populate the Joint Venture Name in Credit Memos

The process to create receivables invoices to recoup joint venture costs populates the Cross Reference field in the invoice header with the name of the joint venture.

The system doesn’t automatically populate the joint venture name on credit memos associated with the invoices. You must configure the joint venture invoice transaction source to facilitate passing this information to credit memos.

Note: If needed, you can use the Cross Reference field as an input source when you set up subledger accounting rules to create accurate accounting entries. See Override the Receivable Account Using Subledger Accounting Rules on how to use the Cross Reference field as an input source to derive the receivable account for joint venture receivables invoices.
