Category Posting Setup
The Category Posting Setup specifies the posting groups for the categories to be posted and standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central fields such as Posting Type, VAT, etc.
The Configuration Type specifies the type of configuration. The options are:
- Country/Region – If selected, the user must select a specific country in the Country/Region Code field.
- European Classification – If selected, all categories for European countries, which are not defined otherwise, will be posted with this configuration.
Note
For more information about country codes, see Integration on Countries/Regions Page.
The European Classification Type indicates that the relevant country is European. The options are:
- National – Classified as domestic.
- EU – Classified as EU country.
- Export – Classified as non-EU.
Choose Manage > Delete to remove the selected entry.
Further information
The Category Posting Setup is necessary to define the G/L Account, Posting Type, and four Posting Group fields during the creation of the travel expense statement (statement line). During this process, the category and country code of the expense are converted into the above mentioned six fields.
COSMO Travel Expense Management proceeds as follows:
- The Countries/Regions based on the Country code of the expense are checked.
Note
If it cannot be found, for example, due to an incorrect or missing setup, an empty Country Code in Rydoo field is considered empty for the algorithm.
- Country-specific settings are checked.
- Check the Category Posting Setup to see, if a line with Configuration Type = Country/Region and Country/Region Code from 1.) can be found. If so, use the six fields from the found matrix row.
Note
If the Country/Region from 1.) is empty and a Category Posting Setup line was configured with empty Country/Region Code, it will be found.
Example for empty code
i. On the Countries/Regions page, an empty code was defined for Spain and France.
ii. In the Category Posting Setup, DE (German) and Empty are defined as Country/Region Code.
iii. In the statement line, the second line (empty) would be added for both Spain and France.
- Check National
- Get the Country/Region Code from the Company Information table.
- If the Country/Region Code from 1.) matches the field from the Company Information, check the Category Posting Setup to see, if a line with Configuration Type = European Classification and European Classification Type = National exists. If so, use the six fields from the found matrix row.
- Check European
- If in the Country/Region Code from 1.), the EU Country/Region Code field is filled, then check the Category Posting Setup to see, if a line with Configuration Type = European Classification and European Classification Type = European exists. If so, use the six fields from the found matrix row.
- Check Export
- If in the Country/Region Code from 1.), the EU Country/Region Code field is empty, then check the Category Posting Setup to see, if a line with Configuration Type = European Classification and European Classification Type = Export exists. If so, use the six fields from the found matrix row.
- All six fields are left empty.
