Locking AR/AP by client partner (or closing periods by partner)

edited Nov 11, 2013 11:24AM in Accounting / ERP 2 comments

Hey all,

We have a business model in which we provide a sales-type service on behalf of our "client partners" (something like subsidiaries, but not affiliated with us).  They in turn have their customers.

We are launching Netsuite to replace an existing system, and the design called out to have multiple partners in one Netsuite instance (not even OneWorld... just plain Netsuite).

I was brought on late, so I don't know how they decided to do this, but I see a problem in which all of our client's transactions are posting to the same GL and the same period.  This in and of itself is not a problem, until end of month, when we may need to lock AR/AP for one client and not another.  I think this may be a problem complaint/problem...

Howdy, Stranger!
