Fix cross-company mistakes by voiding intercompany transactions
Previously in Dynamics GP, voiding an intercompany transaction only voided the initiating side of the transaction. For example, if company A pays the bills for company B, company A could enter a payables voucher and assign the costs to expenses in company B. Dynamics GP would process an intercompany transaction and generate a journal entry with the expense on company B's ledger. If company A made a mistake and chose to void that transaction, a manual correction on company B's books was required.
