Shared Transactions Intercompany Setup

Overview

Shared Transactions enable intercompany allocations.

The key difference between intracompany and intercompany allocations is the scope of the allocation:

  • Intracompany allocations occur within a single subsidiary, distributing amounts across departments, classes, or locations.
  • Intercompany allocations involve multiple subsidiaries, allocating amounts outside the original subsidiary.
