syedamir

Dear All,

Does the Functionality Intercompany works on Two Database.

DataBase1--> Company1
DataBase2--> Company2

Purchase Order on Company1(DB1) to be Sales Order on Company2(DB2).
Can the above be handled through Intercompany.

Thanks in Advance.

I think NO

einsTeIn.NET

Why not?

I thought it cannot be done as I have done in same database and for different databases I have done through Biztalk Server..

But got to know in analysis after your question

Why Not

that can be done as

einsTeIn.NET

Yes, I think XML File is the way to do something like that. But it's very hard to build your solution on that functionality. How could you be sure that your master data is the same in both databases? How will you solve an automatic import/export? There are several technical questions that have to be clarified beforehand. And there are even some questions concerning the legal point of view of the situation.
So, I would say it isn't impossible, but not without a careful preparation. It depends on so many things... I think that's not a question that could be answered in an easy way in a forum.

Can this be done using BizTalk?

This is std NAV. When you setup intercompany, you can select a different Company within the db or you can setup to a folder, and NAV will create the xml file.


If that folder is shared, in other database you can import the xml file and process it.


This is all std NAV.

You don't need Biztalk.
