Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-5243:
-------------------------------------
I believe that current functionalities in OFBiz facilitate the wish set forth in the title of this issue. I am talking about the multi-tenancy functionalities in OFBiz. Which should be suitable for having multiple separate legal entities in a multi organisation/multi-currency business setup. Specifically regarding the various external reports that legal entities are obliged, by law, to produce based on differences in country, accounting setup and options.
I also believe that regarding this subject we are talking more about organisational reporting aggregation than accounting aggregation. The first is easier to achieve than the second. Doing reporting in XBLR and having import and export functions would facilitate this. It would definitely alleviate the need to create complex transaction processing functionalities that address the issues related to inter-entity currencies and issues regarding the time delay in and the approval processes of (sending and receiving) legal documents between the various legal entities supported and managed with OFBiz.
But this is nothing more than assumption and conjecture without in-dept requirements analyses and scoping. If we are to embark on this venture I suggest to consult the community to see whether this set of improvements is something that is wished for/wanted/needed in OFBiz trunk and invite the community to participate in (business) requirements analysis, business-case and use-case definition. Which, can then be worked out as tasks related to this issue.
> Make OFBiz really multi company and multi currency

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5243> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ALL COMPONENTS
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Reporter: Hans Bakker
>
> Currently all information related to any company is shown in the system in all components.
> I would like to suggest to show only information related to the current organization and only allow the entry related to the current organization company.
> This concerns but is not limited to quotes, orders, shipments, payments, invoices and ledger.
> This means these documents should have at least the current organization company in either the from- or to-party and should be in the currency of that company.
> We could also make this a configuration option in general properties.
> Regards,
> Hans
