Through a ticket I've been working with Microsoft I've been informed that certain regional licensing keys (specifically for Russia and Norway) contain a feature that allows for postings that occur in the AP and AR processes such as the posting of a vendor invoice and the payment of that invoice to inherit the financial dimensions for the AP side of the entry or the Bank side of the entry on the payment from the actual invoice lines themselves.

Currently this doesn't happen, you either have to fill them out manually or rely on a series of defaults on the journal, vendor, or bank to get some of that information to populate but it will override what you need it to be often times.

There's a large need within the public sector specifically to maintain all of these transactions out of the same fund. Microsoft designed their posting definitions that are used in the public sector around the concept of pooled cash, but not every public sector entity does this. so it creates a vary confusing web of entries that are required in order to accomplish just paying for an invoice out of the same fund that it originated in. This would be greatly simplified and widely applicable if these dimensions could just be inherited from the invoice account distributions

Thanks for raising the idea. Due to the low votes, it is declined and not considered in our future release plan.

Absolutely required functionality. Inherit Financial dimensions from invoice should happen also in centralized payment case.
