Managing HQ Groups
HQ Groups let multiple companies share the same master data (for example phase groups or tax codes) so you maintain it once.
Before you start
- Know which companies should share which masters versus keep separate groups.
Steps
- Open HQ Company Setup for the company.
- On Additional Info, review the eight group assignment fields.
- Assign each field to a shared group or a company-specific group.
- Use HQ Groups (and the related master forms) to maintain shared group data; changes apply to every company that uses that group number.
Notes
- Never share group numbers between live and test companies.
- Separate legal entities still need separate company numbers even when they share groups.
