In Business Central 365, we want to use one company and the same item codes, customers, vendors, banks, and cash accounts, but logically isolate a separate division (via Division Dimension code) used for audit or compliance entries.
Requirement:
Same items, customers, vendors, banks
Separate division code for audit/compliance entries
Management reports should include only operational division codes
Audit/compliance division entries should NOT affect:
Item valuation (FIFO / Average Cost)
COGS
Inventory valuation of operational data
Real customer and vendor ageing
Question:
Is there any standard BC configuration or supported approach where a division/dimension alone can isolate valuation and ageing when using the same items, customers, and vendors?
If this is not possible, what is the recommended best practice to handle such audit or compliance entries while keeping operational and management data unaffected?
Looking for practical, real-world guidance.
