Multi Company

Posted on by

We are implementing SL for the first time and have 5 companies that we want to use the Multi Company with for Intercompany Entries.  Our account structure is pretty basic at this time Acct-Location  i.e. 5500-2894.  Does anyone have a suggestion on if we should change the account structure to allow for the automatic posting of IC entries between Companies or how they would set up the Due/To accounts in the GL for each company.  We are using a database for each company.

Thanks

Bill

    RE: Multi Company

    Ok that makes sense, I think I was getting confused with another software I had previously worked with that required 2 sub account sections to swap during the intercompany process.  So the table below would work out fine if I understand correctly  and if I use separate DB I will have to run the Export/Import for the entries that are created.  Thanks a bunch for your reply.

    i.e.

    From Cmpy ID module screen From Acct From Sub To Cmpy ID To Acct To Sub
    1 All All 1251 0000 2 1252 0000
    1 All All 1251 0000 3 1253 0000
    1 All All 1251 0000 4 1254 0000
    2 All All 1252 0000 1 1251 0000
    2 All All 1252 0000 3 1253 0000
    2 All All 1252 0000 4 1254 0000
    3 All All 1253 0000 2 1252 0000
    3 All All 1253 0000 3 1253 0000
    3 All All 1253 0000 4 1254 0000
    4 All All 1254 0000 1 1251 0000
    4 All All 1254 0000 2 1252 0000
    4 All All 1254 0000 3 1253 0000

    If I am clear on what you are asking, you are going to set up a set of accounts that map the due to/due from accounts between the companies allowed to do I/C transactions. You will them be able to make the I/C transaction as a single debit/credit and the system will handle creating the rest of the entry with the accounts you map.

    I don't think you need to change your acct/sub structure to support it unless you want to.
