Copies a Chart of Accounts from another company to your current company.

Only ledger code and group code information is copied during this function (i.e. budgets, history and detail movements are ignored). The new Chart of Accounts is created with zero balances and values.

If any accounts already exist in the target company with the same ledger code as those in the source company, then those accounts in the target company are retained.

Copies all of a company's ledger files to your current company. This includes information from the master file, detail transaction file, history file, and all the General Ledger settings from the GenControl table.

This is useful if you want to copy your ledger information from your live company to a test company or if you want to retain a snapshot of your general ledger at any given point in time.

The new general ledger is created with the same balances and budget values as the company from which the records were copied.

Once you have copied the live ledger to your current company you must run the Balance function of the GL Period End program to update the company control record.

Combines the ledger file of one or more companies with the ledger file of your current company.

This is generally used when you want to produce consolidated financial reports using the Financial Report Writer.

By default, each company uses its own set of ledger files. However, if you want to produce consolidated financial reports for two or more companies, you must set up the system to use shared General Ledger files.

To do this, you set the Shared companies options (Company Setup) in the subsidiary companies to point to the holding company. Once you set the option in the subsidiary companies all ledger master, history and detail transactions are stored in the holding company's file.

Deletes an entire company's General Ledger.

The current Company id is set as the default company to delete, so ensure that you do not delete your current company ledger by mistake.

You would typically use this function to remove the general ledger data for a company or for a company that is merged into the physical tables/files of the current company.

If you are consolidating general ledger data from remote companies (e.g. your branches run SYSPRO remotely on their own servers) then you use this function to remove the data after the monthly financial reporting has been completed. This ensures that the data can be re-imported at the next month end without encountering duplicate ledger accounts.
