Subsidiaries

Overview

By default a company can have only one parent company. With multiple subsidiaries enabled, a company can hold several subsidiary relations, each with an optional percentage and its own comments.

Setup

1. Enable ShowCompanySubsidiaries in the Contact section of the CRM Configuration screen.
2. Run the one-time conversion below. It moves the existing single parent-company relations into the subsidiary list, so no existing data is lost.

The conversion only has to be run once, at the moment the setting is switched on.

Configuration Reference

Allows multiple subsidiaries per company instead of a single parent company.

• Allowed values: true, false
