The smart routing engine that decides which G/L account, dimensions, and approver an inbound line should post to.

Vendor Posting Setup

BC page: Vendor Posting Setup (Card) · Source: RSMSTAVendorPostingSetup.Page.al

A single Vendor Posting Setup entry tells eMessaging: “when a line from this vendor with this seller’s item ID and this accounting cost arrives, post it to this account/item, with these dimensions, routed to this approver.” It’s the per-line counterpart of the Vendor Posting Template — used when a template doesn’t fully cover the line.

For the full posting-template lookup chain, see Vendor Posting Template.

Dimensions

Eight shortcut dimension code fields (Shortcut Dimension 1–8). Each is visible only when that shortcut dimension number is configured in the General Ledger Setup. Set the dimension code that should be applied to lines matching this setup; the dimensions on the line override the template-level dimensions.

References (read-only)

These show the lookup key — they’re read-only because they form the primary key of the setup entry.

Approvals

FieldWhat it controls

Additional Item Properties for line

A sub-page lists additional matching rules — AdditionalItemProperty, CommodityClassification, DocumentReference, etc. The sub-page is visible only when Use Advanced Vendor Posting Template is off in Centara Setup. When it’s on, this sub-page is replaced by the Advanced Item properties for line sub-page on the Vendor Posting Template card.

For the field details on that sub-page see Additional line properties.
