master data for multi entities

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 60

Hi~

should I use one master data for muti-entities in GP if purchasing cost is different for each entity ? 

we have one store in NY and another in VA. 

I implied GP 2018 2 months ago with one item master data. 

But NY is HQ to control ERP system but store integrates with a different POS now. 

Can you advice on this ?

    Hi,

    Thank you for using Microsoft Communities.

    Microsoft Dynamics GP does not have any default core functionality for Multi-entity management or setup.  I do believe there are some third party products which connect into GP for Multi-entity functionality.  I will let the members of the community respond regarding multi-entity functionality.

    Thank you,

    Janelle

    Hi Sunflower,

    please define "multi-entities" ? You're asking if you can assign different purchasing 'cost' to different items.... are you also going to sell the items under different prices, depending on the store / location where the item is sold ?

    GP can handled different purchasing costs from various vendors, but you have little control over which to use for which customer..

    A 3rd-party add-on would be helpful to manage the price lists for various customers, like Rockton Pricing Management: www.rocktonsoftware.com/.../

    A multi-entity management solution is mostly geared towards accounts and financial reporting:

    Though using a tool like MEM brings its own drawbacks:
