Branch office logic from SD

Question

The business scenario I'm trying to address is:
we have multiple customers/shiptos that order, have credits issued for, and an individual credit limit set - but one corporate office that pays all of the bills and wants to take credits from shipto A for a balance on shipto B. 
I know about and have set up the head office/branch office relationship and about setting the Payer partner to = the head office.  The problem with this set up is that it rolls into one credit limit (head office customer) rather than each branch having it's own.  If I change the payer to = the branch office, then it does not show up within open items or cash app in FI under the head office.
Has anyone figured out how to keep seperate credit accounts for the branch offices but apply cash from a corporate level?

Answer 1

The variable WDSSERVER is a variable that is figured out by MDT when booting a machine using the boot image created by Microsoft Deployment Toolkit. Therefore it is not available in Windows.
If you want different WSUS servers depending on location of the client you can use for instance this technique in CustomSettings.ini. This will point clients on a specific subnet to a specific WSUS server.
