Sharing Vendors across Companies

Another great option when you have multiple companies in the system is to be able to File Share, vendors, as well as other Sub-Accounts, across companies.  The system has the ability to file share across companies, where a new "vendor" can be setup in any of the companies and the remaining companies will have access to that "vendor’s" information.

AP_File_Sharing

 

In this example, we are looking at company 0LANE for Sub-Accounts (this includes vendors). If Sub-Accounts are shared, Properties MUST be shared as well.

Warning:  if you already have existing companies that have historical data do NOT activate this feature until you have a plan of action for your existing Sub-Accounts! This feature will cause Sub-Account associations to be based solely on one company’s Sub-Accounts.  Pak Accounting's conversion team will need to assist you if you want to use this feature after you have already been using the system and have existing history.
