Contains the code of the posting group assigned to the customer. The program uses this information when you post a service document.

The program retrieves the code from the Customer table when you fill in the Bill-to Customer No. field.

Through the appropriate customer posting group code, the program determines which general ledger accounts a certain posting operation will affect. The customer posting group specifies accounts for customer receivables, service charges, payment discount amounts and invoice rounding amounts.

The information on VAT percentage and the accounts (for VAT, sales, purchases and so on) to which the program posts transactions with different customers, vendors, items and resources involved is specified in the General Posting Setup table.

For the sake of consistency in your VAT system, you should specify the correct Gen. Posting Type for each G/L account.
