Consolidate Branch Databases

If your organization has several branches and the data entry is done separately, you can update a central database and get consolidated reports on the organization’s performance by importing data from all the various branch database(s).

Before any corporate database is created, the supervisor has to make sure that general settings at system configuration, support files and chart of accounts exactly match for all branches. This check should be done regularly; otherwise it can create consistency problems with the import of the data.

To consolidate branch databases you must have a corporate licence and a valid license for each of the databases that you want to import.

Note that all the branch databases to be consolidated should be on the main server and should have been attached or restored before the importation can be done. The configuration and Support files are taken from the first database in the list of branches to import.

How to Consolidate Branch Databases

To consolidate branch databases you go to System->Consolidate Branch Databases and a screen like the one below shows up:

Click on the database that you want to consolidate and click on the > button to transfer the database to the screen on the right. You can also click on the >> to transfer all the databases to the right at once.

Click on the Save command button to import and consolidate the databases.

Note: At importation all previously imported data will be overwritten and replaced wi

 

th new data from the selected databases for importation.

You can always view separate reports for the different imported databases, e.g., "Trial Balance", by selecting the specific database in the Branch options given in the various reports as shown below, e.g. "AK".
