All operating actions are performed within a site: the site is the core element for organizing the management data of companies and sites.

A site must exist within a company.

Certain management data belong to a given site, others are common to a group of sites managed in the same folder:

  • the ledger, that is, the set of identification information used by sites to communicate, is common to all the sites: this essentially involves products, business partners, the chart of accounts and common tables (units etc.),
  • in the files that contain the data linked to a site (for instance, the transactions, but also certain data linked to the product). Access is always made via a key including the code for the corresponding site.

Even if each management act is clearly referenced to a single site, a certain number of processes require the cooperation between several sites.
Examples of this are:

  • the multi-site planning (MPS, MRP or DRP).
  • the exchange of goods between 2 storage sites,
  • the consumption of a product at another storage site,
  • the taking into account in the same order of purchase requests generated by different sites,
  • the splitting of a delivery across several sites depending on the requesters,
  • the generation of account postings over several sites from a single supplier invoice,
  • the allocation of a customer order to several sites, warehouses, etc.

Conversely, it should be noted that the user, when logging into the software, is not connected to a site or company.
Only the user's authorizations define if filters exist so that s/he does not see data assigned to certain sites.
On the other hand, the default values are defined so as to propose to the user the appropriate sites for their profiles. The default sites are defined by module in the Sites tab in the user profile definition record.

Screen management

Several tabs are required to manage a site.

Header

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

This code is used to identify the site concerned. It is unique for each site.

  • Description (field FCYNAM)

This title is used to identify the Site clearly.

This information is intended to be reproduced on documents and reports.

Close

 

Tab General

Presentation

This tab presents general information (Site registration no., SIC code, etc.), as well as the code of the legal company to which the company it linked. This company, which must have previously been created, corresponds to the attached company in the accounting sense of the term.

Close

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

  • Short description (field FCYSHO)

This title, which describes the record, is used in some screens or records when there is not enough space to display the long title.

Select or directly enter the company code for which the site is attached.

This code is used to identify the country associated with the information.

In the country table, which controls this field, there is a certain number of characteristics useful to perform controls on dependent information, and especially :

  • the telephone number format
  • the format of the number identifying a company or an activity (SIRET, NAF in France)
  • the postal code format
  • the format of the bank ID number
  • Site tax ID no. (field CRN)

The Site Registration number identifies a company.

This numerical identifier made of 14 numbers is sub-divided into two parts: the first part is the Company Registration number the company (or legal unit or legal entity) to which the Site Registration number belongs; the second part is usually called the NIC (internal classification number), and is made up of a four-figure number assigned to the establishment and a control figure used to validate the Site Registration number as a whole.

This information must necessarily be entered if the Site Registration number code is setup as being mandatory for the country of the company for which the site is attached.

  • SIC code (field NAF)

This is the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code, which characterizes the principle activity of the business partner and can be used for selection, sorting, reporting, etc.

The entry format of the activity code depends on the Country.

  • Self-certification of origin (field ORICERFLG)

  • REX number (field REXNUM)

  • EORI number (field EORINUM)

Tab Accounting

Presentation

This tab presents information of an accounting nature, such as:

  • a flag used to identify whether the site is an accounting site (declaration site).
    If not, it is necessary to specify to which accounting site this site is attached,
  • a grid containing the default dimensions (used to enter the latter in the various documents, by means of the corresponding setup),
  • an accounting code used to determine the general ledger postings and the analytical nature.

 

Fields

The following fields are present on this tab :

Financials

  • Financial site (field FINFLG)

If this box is checked, the site is an accounting site (financial site).

If the box is unchecked, the site is not an accounting site and you must enter the financial site to which it is attached to in the next field: Financial site.

SEEWARNINGCaution: if the site is a financial site, you can uncheck the box but only after the site accounts have been closed and after the company FY end.

In addition, this site will no longer be considered in the inquiries of balances, accounts, etc. This is also true for FYs prior to the status change.

It is the code of the site on which the accounting is carried out.

If this site is an accounting site, this information is useless.
On the contrary, this code is mandatory. It has to correspond to an already existing financial site.

Use this field to specify the accounting code of the site.
The accounting code is a default value used in the setting up of accounting entries.
It refers to a table that lists a certain amount of elements (collective accounts, accounts or parts of accounts) that can be used for the determination of the documents that will be posted.

Grid Analytical dimensions

The pre-loaded dimensions in the grid correspond to the default dimensions associated with the 'Site' basic data.

The setup determines if the analytical dimensions can be modified. They are initialized based on the setup of the default dimension.

In creation mode, if no order line has been entered and the project code is modified, the analytical dimensions are reset based on the setup of default dimensions.

In creation mode, as in modification mode, if an order line is entered and the project code is modified, the analytical dimensions are not reset.

 

Tab Addresses

Tab Contacts

Presentation

Use this tab to list the persons linked to this site in the contacts table. The full contact information linked to the name are displayed next to the grid.

In order to add a new contact:

  • select an existing contact (relationship) or
  • create a new contact:
    - you can enter a code and detailed information about this contact,
    - you can also simply enter the detailed information as the code is automatically created when saving the record.
    In both cases, the contact is automatically recorded in the Contacts table.

The contacts management, based on Contacts (relationships), ensures that each individual record is unique. A contact with a particular role can be recorded as one Contact among many companies, sites or BPs. Based on the record of one contact, you can indeed create relationships across records, provided they have a Contact tab.

SEEINFO However, a contact considered as a relationship can only be recorded as a person or individual. Only identification information such as the last name, first name, date of birth and cell phone number are common to the contact (relationship) record and to the details entered at the general contact level.
Other information such as the address, email address, landline number and fax number are managed separately between the contact and each of their particular contacts. At relationship level, the information is considered as being personal; at general contact level, the information is considered as being professional.
