When you set up the Multicompany feature, remember that Vision enforces organization structure limits that affect the number of levels you can establish and how many characters you can designate for the full organization code in each company.
Level Limits
Only one first-level code can be in place for any company's organization structure. Vision does not allow you to create more than one first-level code per company after the Multicompany feature is enabled.
Also, you cannot create more than five levels of organization structure. Therefore, if you already have an organization structure with five levels defined, you must restructure your codes and subcodes before adding the company level.
Code Length Limits
Vision concatenates the codes for each of the organization levels. For example, DELTEK:
BOS:ENG represents three levels, in which DELTEK is the company, BOS is the office, and ENG is the Discipline.
The total length of the full organization code for the company must be 14 characters or fewer. This total includes characters, digits, and delimiters.
