Elimination of multi-company transactions
Dear community,
I have been researching, multi-company in Odoo is not great. For consolidation, it seem possible through some appstore module purchase (not OCA, so I am not very confident)
Elimination of multi company transactions for consolidation purposes is nowhere we could find.
Anyone have experiences with this?
Thanks!

Re: Elimination of multi-company transactions
Thank you everyone for the valuable suggestions.This helps us understand the what is available / lacking and know what needs to be developed further if we want to proceed with this requirement.On Wed, Jan 17, 2024 at 4:06 PM Oleg Kuryan <notifications@odoo-community.org> wrote:Hello,About Odoo consolidation/multi-company.

Re: Elimination of multi-company transactions
Hi,it is a very good point bcs I am also exploring to which extents (if at all) Odoo is a real-real enterprise ERP : multicompanies, multicountries, multiCA, running in parallel COCA and LOCA (corporate and local country' Chart of Accounts). We call a vehicle and a car and a truck but car is not truck and vs.I don't intentd to step into "run in battle" here (or elsewhere) but I was overimpressed by a recent presentation how Odoo is overcoming another ERP (well known big brand) bcs of this , bcs of that... and am puzzled if one involving them in public presentations are actually well prepeared what the "E" in ERP really stands for.Coming back to the consolidation topic - looking forward to learn more about it from the experiences of others.Have a nice day!On Wed, 17 Jan 2024, 13:57 Kitti Upariphutthiphong, <notifications@odoo-community.org> wrote:Dear community,I have been researching, multi-company in Odoo is not great.
