Hi,

we´ve got a single-finance/ multi-logistic environment in Baan IVc4.

Now, we want to separate one logistic-company [600], because it becomes a own legal-entity.

Result should be, that there is
a) still a single-finance/ multi-logistic environment - but then without company [600] and
b) a single/ single company [600]

Has someone a kind of process-plan how to separate this company from the old single-fin/ multi-log environment? Perhaps some documentation or just a list of "avoiding typical mistakes" or any other experiences?

The project will start in current year, there will be probably the need to separate gains and losses of this year, yet.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
ath

You are taking up a huge task, but be clear abt folowing points:

The history of old financial transactions would lie in the old finance company.
You will have to transfer all open transactions to new set-up.

I would sincerely advise, close company 600, open a new company and enter opening balances/inventory/invoices etc in a proper manner.

Dont look for converting 600 to MFML.

Hi, H.

thank you very much for your advise.

That would be surely the best way regarding the company, that has to be separated from the Multisite-Environment into a single/ single.

But the problem remains, that there will still be left a Multisite-environment for the other companies, that are involved in the actual Multisite-concept.

I´m looking for a way to separate all data/ invoices/ history data ... of the company 600, setting up a new 600 single finance/single logistic, but also still having a multisite-environment with the other remaining companies.

It´s not only building a new single/ single 600, but it´s also the "reducing" of the remaining ms in current year.
Probably we can´t avoid a intermediate year-end-processing? a new setting up of all involved companies necessary???

regards,
ath.

Hi!

As said, by closing company 600 which means:

1. Closing all invoices using a Control A/C
2. Removing comlete inventory(inv adj) with same control a/c
3. Calculating P/L and passing into Balance Sheet.
4. Removing all b/S balance to Control account.

This way both financially and logistically the company will be sepeated from Multicompany Structure.

The in the new company:

Revere the above transactions using the same control account.

Be sure about the Group Company... do you want same as that of Finance compnay of 600 or something else.

Mail me in case of further clarificatrions...

I dont think there is any change equired in other comapnies...

Multi-Site means inter-company processing which will continue to happen with the new company.

Financial consolidation is dependent on group company structure which you can make as you desire with the new companyu..

Hope this clarifies...
