Centralized Procurement

Considering your example, you Invoice Customer/Requesting Org in US for Receivables and the Supplier/Shipping Org in AU for Payables. Once you have received the goods:

1) Run 'Create Intercompany AR Invoice' for the Shipping operating unit (AU)
2) Run ' AutoInovice Master' program for the internal order with Invoice Source as "Intercompany" in AU Receivables. This generates the
accounts receivable invoice for the Shipping Operating Unit.
3) Run "Create Intercompany AP Invoice" for the Requesting (US) Operating Unit in the receiving Inventory. This creates the Payable Invoice.
4) Run the Expense Import program with source "Intercompany" in the Requesting (US) Operating Unit.

Centralized Purchasing for Multiple Receiving Organizations

Purchasing provides complete centralized procurement support. You can leverage your purchasing power by consolidating the requirements from different plants, warehouses, and office sites; yet retain receiving support. You can define separate, autonomous receiving organizations for each of these sites.

Use the Change Organization window (See: Changing Your Organization) to choose your receiving organization. With the Receipts window, you can receive goods only for your current organization. The current organization code is displayed in the title bar of the Receipts window. (See: Entering Receipt Lines) For supplier shipments, you specify the receiving organization on the purchase order shipment. For intransit inventory shipments, you specify the receiving organization when you create the intransit shipment. For internal requisitions, you use the destination organization to specify the receiving organization.

All other receiving windows can access receiving only in your current organization. You also must deliver to the same organization in which you received the goods.

Use the Maintain Shipments window to update intransit information to provide accurate expected delivery date information to better plan your production processes. See: Maintaining Shipments.
