Setting up countries and states

  1. For each site and entity, go to the Countries form and add records for the countries listed on the Currency spreadsheet you created during the planning phase. Include any countries that are needed for the site or entity addresses on the General Parameters form. See Setting general parameters. You can also add other countries needed for customers and vendors.


    • Country codes are replicated to other sites/entities if A/P, Shared Currency, or Centralized Order Entry categories are being replicated. Thus, if you are maintaining currency information at one site or entity and replicating it to the others, you should enter your initial country list at the site/entity where you will maintain currency information.
    • If the Activate EU VAT Reporting field is not selected on the General Parameters form, the EU and SSD EU fields are disabled here and do not allow data entry.
    • When you integrate SyteLine with other Infor BOD-enabled products, only ISO country codes can be passed in the BODs. If you are creating a new system, we recommend that you use the ISO country codes when defining new countries. If you already have existing non-ISO country codes, you can map them to ISO codes using this form.
  2. For each site and entity, use the Prov/States form to create province and state records to be used when you specify the company address in the General Parameters form for each site and entity database. You can also add other provinces and states needed for customers and vendors.

    Province and state codes are replicated in the Multi-Site CRM category.
