Encumbrance accounting in unmatched Invoices Payables
Hello experts!
I'm using Budgetary Control and encumbrance accounting in Payables. I have read that Payables creates an encumbrance for the expense during Approval, and reverses this encumbrance during posting for unmatched Invoices.
When I approve the Invoice the system creates the following Encumbrance entries:
- Reserve for Encumbrance "01.8321.990000" DR 100
- Item Expense "01.8240.002000" CR 100
When I post the Invoice The following entries are made:
- Item Expense "01.8240.002000" DR 100
- Reserve for Encumbrance "01.8240.999999" CR 100
I know where the system is taking the Encumbrance account at Approval time (01.8321.990000). What I don't get is why the system is using another encumbrance account (01.8240.999999) when posting the transaction instead of just making the Reversal using the original encumbrance account.
