Is Multi-Company Accounting Manageable In 1 System?

Jul 15, 2020 | Business Trends, C-Suite, Salesforce & IT Admins, Salesforce Account Executives

Operating two or more entities requires thorough, clear accounting for each. With the right multi-company accounting tool, you can seamlessly and strategically align the finances of your businesses in a single system. Let’s look at essential multi-company accounting features.

MULTI COMPANY ACCOUNTING

Can You Manage Multi-Company Finances in One Accounting System?

Yes, multiple company finances can be stored and managed in just a single accounting system, but the efficiency of doing so rests on the tool itself. When looking for potential solutions, be sure to directly inquire if multi-company are available. Bear in mind, some systems may claim to have multi-company options but they’re rigid and don’t actually let you house the ledgers in a single database. This can cause data inconsistencies and/or make you spend more time managing the numbers. For example, QuickBooks users need to have separate databases and separate logins for each company. 

There are alternate options to safely and conveniently manage multiple company finances. Look for flexible accounting systems that offer options for managing the financial dimensions and requirements of each entity. And of course, make sure the system in question will let you consolidate your financial data into a single platform for easy management.
