You can then retrieve the company of the warehouse from the freight planning company. You can link warehouses from various companies to a shipping office. This is used in various multi-site scenarios. For further information, see Freight Management in multisite environments. You cannot change the company if the company and the warehouse are present on a freight order. Warehouse The warehouse linked to the shipping office. The warehouse must exist for the company inserted in the Company field. You cannot delete the warehouse if the warehouse and the company of the warehouse are present on a freight order. Enterprise Unit The enterprise unit of the active shipping office. Enterprise Unit A financially independent part of your organization that consists of entities such as departments, work centers, warehouses, and projects. The enterprise unit's entities must all belong to the same logistic company, but a logistic company can contain multiple enterprise units. An enterprise unit is linked to a single financial company. When you carry out logistic transactions between enterprise units, these are posted in the financial companies to which each enterprise unit is linked. You can define the relationships between the enterprise units, and thus the goods transfer that can take place between the enterprise units. To use invoicing and pricing between enterprise units, you must link the enterprise units to internal business partners. You can use enterprise units to do separate financial accounting for parts of your business. For example, you can define enterprise units for separate parts of your organization that belong to one logistic company, but that are located in different countries. The accounting of each enterprise unit is performed in each country's national currency, and in the financial company linked to the enterprise unit. |
