Inter-Company Deposit (ICD): disbursements & repayments never knock off
Unresolved NetSuite issues currently faced across the Group NetSuite OneWorld environment (India Localization / legacy tax). India localization SuiteTax bundle is already implemented.
Summary
Group subsidiaries lend short-term funds to each other as Inter-Company Deposits. Each disbursement and repayment is keyed as a custom “Bank GL Payment” voucher posting to an Other-Asset account (“Inter-corp deposits – Unsecured”), with the counterparty subsidiary tagged as a vendor. Because the account is Other Asset (not AR/AP), there is no native apply mechanism and no key linking a disbursement to its repayment. Every line stands alone, loans look perpetually open, per-loan outstanding is invisible, and net-per-counterparty can even go negative (impossible for a genuine asset) — confirming a sub-ledger matching gap, not a balance error.
