Running a post codeunit from company A to company B

sabzam

Dear All,

is it possible in some way or another to run the a codeunit in company B from company A. For example whenever I click post batch in the Sales Invoices in Company A automatically even the sales invocies in company B are posted.

Check out the topics on Intercompany Posting. You'll want to use the CHANGECOMPANY function.

CHANGECOMPANY is not your answer for posting, it's just too much code. You will need to develop something more robust than that.

I got a requirement for something similar to that line...
A report needs to be generated for each company after its office hours.
If there are 10 companies, using Job scheduler it will take up 10 use licenses if CHANGECOMPANY cannot be used as each company will need to be opened to run the report.
The current workaround is to schedule a downtime to backup the database to another location & generate the reports from the backup, which is not the way to go...
Any suggestions?

reading data from other companies is fine. It's writing and running business logic that does not work.

Some of the reports included statements or invoices which are not pure reads

There's a thing in the download section that allows you to run one instance of NAS for multiple companies. I don't know how it works, but I remember people being very positive about it.

Like Rashed said, reading data using CHANGECOMPANY is not a problem, processing data using CHANGECOMPANY is possible but the more stuff you need to do the more difficult it becomes.

What if there's no NAS?

you get a free license for NAS, so there is always NAS.
