Changing my Item's default posting

Changing my Item's default posting

When you need an item to post to a specific account you can create up an item group to specify the posting.
In the following example, i want to post to rental account whenever i choose the rental account.

Under Setup -> Item details -> Item Group 
Create a new Item group


Tick 'Priority'
for my example i specify the credit account for invoice. i choose the rental account.

Next,
we will need to create an item to use the item group just created.
Under Setup -> Item details -> item
Create a new item. Change the group to the group created previously.


When creating an invoice
select the item 'Rental'



you can now look at the GL to see the entry created.

the post is between the trade debtor and rental account.
