Finance - Associations

Combine several customers or vendors into one entity creating an association

The module Associations is part of Continia Finance, the solution for dynamic finance departments using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central - and it supports you in many areas of the application.

The module allows you to reconcile an association - such as a chain of stores and their parent company  - with a comprehensive view of open entries within the group. 

If your customer is also your supplier or your supplier is also your customer, the open entries within that association are displayed together in the Extended Application. This allows you to conveniently allocate amounts from debit-side/credit-side settlements to the corresponding entries in one step.

The association's module enables you to clear open items across accounts:

  • Overview of all open items of the association (e.g., all associated customers)
  • Automatic item clearing across all open items associated with the association
  • Overview and clearing options for the open items of a customer/vendor association
  • Establishment of Customer / Vendor links for a summarized balance view
  • Customer / Vendor link based open item clearing

Associations and Customer / Vendor Links are optionally considered in the Reminder notices and open item lists.
