Intercompany Journal Entry

Hello! I’m new using Frappe/ERPNext and I have a task to do.

The company is a group of 15 companies or so and when I need to make a new entry regarding intercompany transfers, I have to make an outcome entry for the main company and then make an income entry for one of the companies involved.

Is there a way to customize a form so I can make this entry once for both companies?

Hi @Gstv-web

The following documentation will help;

https://docs.frappe.io/erpnext/user/manual/en/inter-company-journal-entry

Yeah, I read this before, but this way I need to make the other entry manually, right?

Is there a way to do this once for both sides?

I’m not being routed to the other entry as the doc shows, no matter what I do.

Since company is a legal entity therefore you should pass JV separately under two companies.
Transfer of fund should be treated as investment/loan.

In Company A books
Company B debit xxx
Bank/Cash credit xxx

In Company B books
Bank/Cash debit xxx
Company A credit xxx

I understand that, but is it possible to create some custom stuff so I don’t need to access both books?

Yes, through customisation you can implement required functionality.

Is there a topic related to this?
I saw some instructions of creating custom doctypes by creating an app with bench commands, everything went well until install-app, the UI start crashing saying that a module was not found.

I’m using the frappe_docker repo for this. Is this the correct way?

You don’t need to create a custom doctype for this. Look into Server Scripts. They’ll do everything you need.

I’ve read about this and seems to be the way for it, but it was so difficult creating a new field that I’m not really sure now on what is not working after doing some tests. Keeps making just one register.
