Feedback request: Multi-subsidiary customers/vendors

edited Nov 28, 2019 11:51AM in Accounting / ERP 34 comments

Hi, I have a few questions for OneWorld users as we plan for future releases -

As mentioned recently in another thread, if you need to transact with the same customer in different subsidiaries, you can create a different customer record for each subsidiary.

1. What challenges (if any) do you encounter by managing cross-subsidiary/currency customer relationships with multiple customer records?
Obviously there is some overhead to create and maintain the records, but do you find other limitations around functionality, reporting, etc?

2. Is it usually EXACTLY the same legal entity you transact with across subsidiaries - i.e. the same contacts, addresses, financial info, etc. - or different locations/subsidiaries of the customer for each of your subsidiaries?

Howdy, Stranger!
