It cannot be used in a record set up with another legislation.
When a setup element is defined without a legislation (‘All legislations’ level), it is considered as having a multilegislation nature. This element can be used in every record, irrespective of the legislation, unless there is a setup element with the same code, defined for the company legislation. In that case, the setup element defined for the company legislation is the only one submitted for selection and accepted on entry (provided it is ‘Active’).
Notes:- If the setup element defined for the company is not ‘Active’ and the setup element defined at the "All legislations" level is, this setup element cannot be used.
- To reduce the processing time and thus improve performances, we recommend not to create multilegislation records and instead create records for each legislation of the folder.
For further information, refer to the documentation on Performance improvement: List of the multilegislation objects.
An additional filter is applied on the setup element depending on the company group defined. This setup element can only be used and is only suggested for selection if the company to which the record is associated, belongs to this company group.Example 1:
Setup of invoice type as follows:
Invoice type | Legislation |
FAF | Blank = all legislations |
FAF | FRA |
CTD | Blank = all legislations |
BEF | FRA |
CVC | POR |
When entering an invoice for a company with a FRA legislation, only the following invoice types are suggested for selection:
Invoice type | Legislation |
FAF | FRA |
CTD | Blank = all legislations |
BEF | FRA |
An additional filter is applied depending on the company group entered.
If, in the example above, a company group is also specified at the level of the FAF invoice type setup with the FRA legislation, this invoice type is suggested for selection only if the company belongs to the company group entered.
Example 2:
Setup of invoice type as follows:
Invoice type | Legislation | Group of companies |
FAF | Blank = all legislations | Blank = all groups |
FAF | FRA | GRP |
CTD | Blank = all legislations | Blank = all groups |
BEF | FRA | Blank = all groups |
CVC | POR | Blank = all groups |
When entering an invoice for a FRA legislation company, belonging only to the NOR group, only the following invoice types are submitted for selection:
Invoice type | Legislation | Group of companies |
CTD | All legislations | All groups |
BEF | FRA | All groups |
The FAF invoice type cannot be used because it is defined for the GRP company group for the FRA legislation.
