hello all

Is it possible to have the same (single) master of, say, Customers for two companies in the same database (server) in NAV SP3? we have a situation where two companies serve the same customers and would like to have them all in a SINGLE place to maintain the integrety.

Thanks

    In the properties of the customer table u can set DataPerCompany property to NO.

    This really is not the recommended approach. I know it does look simpl, but there are may repercussions involved.

    Take a look at this thread for a safer solution.

    No you definitely do not want to set that property for any master tables. This has been discussed many times, so please search around. I think most of us agree that creating a new table to store global records, and allowing local companies to copy from there is the most accepted approach.
