Here's an update on this issue.
We're now able to post these invoices in our test environment when tax connect is disabled (the enviorment does not have access to the internet) and when the "Send AR Invoices" box is unchecked in External Company Maintenence for Multi-Company. We still cannot post in our live environment with the "Send AR Invoices" box unchecked and Tax Connect enabled (we require tax connect for tax calculations). When selecting Actions > Group > Calculate All Taxes, Tax Connect turns off and the invoice is put on hold. To me this appears to be a Tax Connect issue that was brought to light by turning on inter company trading. Epicor Support requested a copy of the database and believes there is an issue with the invoice data and/or possibly a field length issue with Tax Connect.
Anyone see this type of behavior before or have any suggestions/ideas?

Receiving the intercompany orders with the new receiving process still does not enable the invoices to be posted (we do not receive any pending receipts error when trying to post the invoices before doing the receiving).

We thought we could just create the sales order from the ICPO suggestion and then handle business as usual (same shipping,receiving,AR/AP invoicing process as we have been doing), but maybe not?

We then pull the shipments into an invoice group and the associated invoices are immediately put on hold. We remove the hold and try to post, but get the following message: "Some invoices in this group have been placed On Hold. These invoices were NOT posted. Invoices On Hold will remain in the entry group until you release them and repost." We remove the hold again and try to repost, but get the same behavior.

The problem is most likely related to intercompany trading in my opinion (since we were able to post the same "Customer's" (Company A) invoices last week), but if not what other circumstances would cause this?
