An accountant is creating an on-behalf-of intercompany transaction using a manual journal.

Comprehensive and Detailed 150 to 250 words of Explanation From Workday Record-to-Report/Course Guide/topics:

The available line companies on an on-behalf-of accounting journal are controlled by the intercompany relationships established in the companies' intercompany profiles. The administrator should inspect Edit Company Intercompany Profile and confirm that the relevant relationship permits initiation or the required on-behalf-of activity. If the relationship is absent or not enabled appropriately, the company will not appear as an eligible line-company value.

Intercompany Payables and Intercompany Receivables account posting rules determine the ledger accounts used after Workday creates balancing due-to and due-from lines; they do not populate the company prompt. Maintain Companies as Customers or Suppliers supports direct intercompany customer and supplier invoices. An on-behalf-of manual journal does not require the missing company to be selected through that customer-supplier mapping. The profile is therefore the controlling setup. After correcting it, the administrator should validate compatible account sets, allowed transaction direction, shared fiscal-schedule requirements, and any required affiliate worktags. Once eligible companies are selected on the journal, Workday can generate the appropriate intercompany balancing accounting. Thus, Intercompany Profiles is the correct configuration area to review.
