Accounts Payable and Multicompany

If your firm uses the Multicompany feature, you must set up Accounts Payable Company Settings for each company in your enterprise.

To navigate to another company, from the Vision Navigation menu, click Utilities > Change Company. The name of the active company (the company you select at login, or in the Change Company utility) displays at the top of the configuration form.

You have security access to the liability codes, vendor type codes, and discount codes that are set up for the active company.

The vendors available to a company are controlled by the settings on the Accounting tab in the Vendor Info Center:

• The Approved for use in accounting for company xx option must be selected and the fields must have data.
• The vendor type must be available to the active company (the company you select at login, or via the Change Company utility). Each vendor type has accounts related to it. Depending on which accounts are assigned to a company, only the vendor types associated with those accounts are available to a company. The Type field on the vendor's Accounting tab displays the vendor types that are available to the active company.
