Company Control

The system can be operated as a single or multi-company system. In larger corporations with independent divisions or sub-companies, multi-company processing offers a high degree of flexibility.

All of the following company controls are established at the company policy level and can be maintained through transactions entered either online or in batch, without programming changes:

Company Run Controls	User Dictionary	Foreign Currency
Cost Center Controls	Company Edit Defaults	Account Controls
Company USERID	Account/Center Controls	Fiscal Calendar
Repeating and Diarized Journals	Data Retention	Accounting Report Options
Seasonal Pattern Controls	Star Report Definitions	Suspense Accounts
Report Requests	Account Structures	Mass Maintenance Controls
Organization Structures	Allocation Controls	Other Report Structures

Each of the preceding control categories can be shared among companies. For example, several companies can share the same chart of accounts, but have separate organization structures and report controls.

All company controls can be entered and maintained online. The same screens are used for both inquiry and update of control information for the user’s convenience. Users can set up accounts, enter budgets, correct errors, and define and run reports immediately online.
