Transaction Account Definition vs. Intelligent Account Combination Defaulting

Payables supports account defaulting on invoices both through TAD and intelligent account combination. You can enable both the features at same time without any conflicts in the operations.

Defaulting in Invoice UI

Intelligent account defaulting starts whenever the user brings the focus to an empty account combination field on the invoice lines. On the other hand, TAD-based defaulting starts only when the user selects the invoice lines and clicks the Derive Account button. This explicit calling of TAD overwrites any existing account combination on the line.

Automatic Defaulting During Bulk Processing

Intelligent account defaulting isn’t supported in bulk invoice processing operations, such as invoice import and invoice validation. TAD supports defaulting in invoice bulk process. The defaulting happens only when no account exists on the invoice lines.
