With creation of new role centers for Accounts Receivables and Accounts Payables, General Ledger Setup received 2 additional fields Account Receivables G/L Account (Sub) Category and Account Payables G/L Account (Sub) Category. However, there might be several sub categories that can be considered as accounts receivable or accounts payables for financial reporting purposes. To my opinion, it would be more beneficial to add a new column in G/L Account categories with the same principal as Additional Reporting Definition for Cash Flow Statement, where an accountant could assign certain grouping principle to the G/L Account subcategories, that would help to identify which subcategories are Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable (may be a new role center for Inventory Accountant to be created, that would require to identify G/L Account sub categories that are related to inventory; or Fixed Asset Manager etc.)
And I also want to mention again that many customers would like to indicate the discount percentage on there business papers (like e.g. the invoice), but this information is not on the sales line if we use retail pricing or UPM. We have made customizations and created a new field where we calculate the percentage back from the total discount, but if I remember properly we also had some rounding issues because of the current way how MSFT is calculating the discount value. Hence I voted for this idea to perhaps have another choice of the calculation method. BTW: The current discount calculation is like this:221.85*16*0.49=1739.304 which is rounded to 1739.30Hence the net amount will be 221.85*16-1739.30=1810.3
