How to: Set Up Accounts for Posting Extra Charges

If you plan on using extra charges, you must create links to the G/L accounts. G/L accounts are assigned to extra charges for specific combinations of general business and general product posting groups in the General Posting Setup window. When an extra charge is assigned to a purchase or transfer transaction, the combination of general business and general product posting group that exists for the transaction determines the G/L accounts to which the extra charge amount is posted.

To set up accounts for posting extra charges

1. In the Search box, enter General Posting Setup, and then choose the related link.
2. Select the line containing the combination of General Business Posting Group and General Product Posting Group for which you want to set up extra charge accounts.

If you are setting up extra charges for transfer orders, you will select lines with assigned General Product Posting Groups and blank General Business Posting Groups.

3. On the Navigate tab, in the Setup group, choose Extra Charges.
4. In the Extra Charge Posting Setup window, fill in the fields.
5. Fill in a line for each extra charge you want to assign to the selected general posting setup line.
