Hello,

To give you a background, we have 5 companies with different types of business and each have its own financial books. I just want to know the advantages and disadvantages of having a single finance/logistic vs multi.. What is the best company practice on this kind of set up? Any issues on performance, hardware, consolidation & accuracy of data, authorization, etc..?

Thanks in advance..

;)

As Ln does not have much changes in finance , following concepts of Baan IV still holds good to a greater degree .

It's suitable when u need to all logistics transactions like purchase / sales etc in one finance company only . This requires to have integration and finance tables to be shared . Bulky integration trx may create performance impact.

If central finance is not the requirement , u can still have multi-fin-multi-logistic with only masters like tfgld005 , tfgld008 , tgld011 etc shared . If u need intercompany fin trx tfgld102 / tfgld015 may be required to be shared . U need to maintain company relations in tfgld0100m000 and tfgld0101m000 .
U can share TB tables (tfgld201-215) to get central TB if and when required in tfgld3402m000 . Absolutely no perf impact for such a configuration .
