Suggested Answer

Install in US and UK

(0) ShareShare

Hi,

We have a situation where the main office of the client is located in US and another office is in UK.

Would you recommend installing UK instance of BC as a separate tenant with UK locality? If so, how would consolidation and Intercompany will work? Am I better off creating UK company in the same tenant?

Also, the company is planning to add more independent offices around the country. Should these be created as separate companies? Or is there a way in BC to segregate these offices in some way inside the same company (aside from GL)?

Thanks,

Oleg.

    1) Standard Intercompany works with companies on the same tenant, not across different tenants

    2) For more offices, you can have them as independent companies if they really are independent companies (VAT Numbers). Otherwise you could use Business Units inside the same company to differentiate things.

    Hello There,

    I have done this the other way around (main UK office and American and Canadian offices)

    This was over a year ago and was a nightmare due to localisations, luckily the American office was small and the admin helped us set up all the different American TAX/VAT rates.

    I believe luckily for you there has been an update announced in wave 2 (October) to help with this

    docs.microsoft.com/.../multiple-production-environments.

    It would be difficult to segregate them in 1 company, it would be easier to have them as separate companies especially if there is different localisation.

    You could then set up an intercompany chart of accounts and map the correct G/L from each subsidiary to that
