Initial Company
When you first enable the Multicompany feature, Vision simultaneously converts your existing Vision database to support multiple companies and creates the initial company in your enterprise.
-
If you have a single Vision database, all data in it belongs to the initial company.
-
If you have more than one Vision database, all data in the database you select as you log in to Vision before enabling the Multicompany feature belongs to this initial company.
When you enable the Multicompany feature, you establish a new first-level code at the top of your organization structure. This new first-level code is the identifier for the initial company.
After you create the initial company, you can add more companies.
Example
For example, assume you create a new first-level code for your organization structure. This organization code (DELTEK) represent the initial company.
Existing organization codes are pushed down a level to accommodate the company code:
