 # Set Up Intercompany Transaction Posting
 
-Intercompany postings make accounting for two or more companies an easier task for a centralized finance department as well as bookkeepers in intercompany partner companies. To send a transaction (such as a sales journal line) from one company and have the corresponding transaction (such as a purchase journal line) automatically created in the partner company, the companies involved must agree on a common chart of accounts and set of dimensions to use with intercompany transactions. The intercompany chart of accounts can be, for example, a simplified version of the parent company's chart of accounts. Each company maps their full chart of accounts to the shared intercompany chart of accounts, and each company maps their dimensions to the intercompany dimensions.

 You must also set up an intercompany partner code for each [!INCLUDE [prod_short](includes/prod_short.md)] company, which is agreed upon by all of the companies, and then assign that to customer and vendor cards, respectively.  
 
 If you create or receive intercompany lines with items, you can either use your own item numbers, or you can set up your partner's item numbers for each relevant item, either in the **Vendor Item No.** field or in the **Common Item No.** field on the item card. You can also use the **Item Reference** function to map your items' numbers to your intercompany partners descriptions of the items, open the card of each item, and then choose the **Item References** action to set up references between your item descriptions and those of the intercompany partner. For more information, see [Use Item References](inventory-how-use-item-cross-refs.md). 
 
-If you will make intercompany sales transactions that include resources, you must fill in the **IC Partner Purch. G/L Acc. No.** field on the resource card for each relevant resource. This is the number of the intercompany general ledger account that the amount for this resource will be posted to in your partner's company.
