This feature can be useful if your business is one where there are separate departments or subsidiary companies that keep separate accounts. Their data can be stored in a single database, in separate partitions known as "Companies".You should only use this feature to differentiate between different departments if you intend to account for each of them separately. If you keep a single set of accounts covering your whole organisation, you only need have a single Company in your database. Companies are stored in the Company register in the System module. You can add new Companies at any time: this process is described on the Changing and Adding Companies page. Adding a new Company will mean that you will have to apply for a new Enabler Key. If you have more than one Company in your Company register, it is recommended that you specify a Short Code for each one: Once you have logged in, the Short Code of the Company ("H" in the example illustrated) will be included in the title of every window, while the full Company Name will be included in the title of the Master Control panel: The first time you log in to a different Company, all windows from the previous Company will be closed. For example, if you change from Company H to Company S, all windows from Company H will be closed. But when you go back to Company H, any open windows from Company S will remain open. If you need to make a change to a record in a particular Company, that Company must be your current Company. For example, you have a Contact record from Company H open in a record window. If Company S is your current Company, you will not be able to make changes to the Contact record. You must change to Company H first, using the [Company] button in the Master Control panel or the Ctrl-O/⌘-O keyboard shortcut. Note that if you are logged into two Companies as described here, you will take up two user "slots". For example, if you have purchased ten users, this means that ten employees can be logged in to your Enterprise by HansaWorld system at any one time. However, if one employee is logged in to two Companies at the same time, this will count as two of those ten log-ins. Usually, each Company will be completely separate: there will be no common information. If you want to copy information from one Company to another, you can do so using one of two methods:
