    Hope this might be helpful:

    You cannot have a Canada company (with native GST/HST functionality) directly within an Australian Business Central tenant.

    Reason: Each Business Central tenant is provisioned for a specific country/localization. An Australian tenant is designed with Australian legal and tax requirements in mind (like AU GST). It does not include the localized features, tax engines (like GST/HST for Canada), or chart of accounts specific to other countries.

    Hello, 

    As per my opinion it's not advisable to manage different localization under one tenant as different localization have their own regulations and compliance.

    Hi, good day
    Within a tenant, there may be different production environments from different countries. You could try analyzing and try to copy some of the features of the Canadian localization.

    Hello,

    At the moment Business Central only allows one location per environment. 

    To use any functionality, you would have to analyze passing it to the environment through development. This would only be recommended if necessary.

    I hope I can help.

    Regards,

    Hi, As of now, one environment only supports one localization.
    So if you need to use the features in the CA environment, you can only create a CA environment.
    Or you can ask your partner to migrate the required functionality into your current environment, although this is very time-consuming.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.
