Can we have two companies mapped to one Operating Unit

Hi All,

Currently, we have one operating unit assigned to one set of books. Our Organization acquired a new company in the same country for which we have an operating unit. Both have same business model and will have similar transaction flowing in.

Instead of creating a new operating unit, can we have both the companies with different company code tied to same operating unit. We want to generate Receivables invoices with different company code (derive company codes from Transaction types), apply payments, recognize revenue, Post to GL and generate P & L reports

Appreciate your suggestions

Thanks
