Defining a Company Group

A company group is a group of General Ledger companies that you define. Use company groups to streamline processing, inquiry, analysis, and reporting when you have multiple companies. Company groups allow you to run batch programs or reports once for all companies in the company group, rather than running the program for each individual company. This procedure describes the process for defining a company group.

The companies you include in a company group must already be defined on Company (GL10.1).

To define a company group

  1. Access Company Group (GL11.1).
    Note: You can also access GL11.1 by clicking the Company Group button on Company (GL10.1).
  2. Click the New Group button to access Define Company Group (GL11.2).
  3. Define a name and description for the company group.
  4. Select the company numbers you want to include in the company group.
