Enterprise Unit

The enterprise unit to which the department is assigned. The financial transactions that result from the orders handled by the department are posted to the financial company that is linked to the department's enterprise unit.

Note: 

Once you have set up the multicompany structure, you cannot change the existing links between key entities, enterprise units, and financial companies, for the following reasons:

  • In many countries it is illegal to change the enterprise units because this affects the financial reporting of profits and loss.
  • Technically, it is only possible to change the enterprise unit if there are no open entries for the enterprise unit. For performance reasons, LN does not check the complete database for open entries, but always assumes that open entries exist.
