Gen. Business Posting Group not defaulting in Output Journal

djswim

Where does the GBPG need to be set up in order to default into an Output Journal line? I have it assigned to the Prod. Order, but that's not working. This is in NAV 2009 SP1.

The Prod. Order is not being created from a Sales Order, but it seems like if the posting group is on the Prod. Order, it should default into the line... any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I think that GBPG for the Output Journal is "BLANK"

So there's no way to have it default in based on customer?

Output is just output, no vendor or customer is concerned?

Sorry, what I meant to say was if there is a GBPG on the Production order, then when I select that production order in the output journal, shouldn't the GBPG default in based on the GBPG in the Production order?

Are you talking about if the production order is linked to the sales order?

In which case, the GBPG is only used when the sales order is posted. Not when Output is created. The reason is because the link can be cancelled (customer cancels order) after the items are produced.

Yes, that is what I was talking about... it's just weird to me that the Output journal requires the GBPG and it doesn't come in from the Production Order (if available) on the Output Journal line. It makes sense in the scenario you've given, but it would seem like most of the time that doesn't happen, so it's double entry.
