Branch Card

The program lets you work with an unlimited number of company branches, and use this feature to organize work when the company has many branches and departments in one city or several cities.

Each branch is independent in its accounts, invoices, materials, groups, and cost centers, while still belonging to the parent company.

Note: the first branch defined is the company's main branch, so it gets full permissions; you cannot delete it or define a branch under it.

You can reach the card from the Systems tab on the main ribbon - "Branches" group.

Once requested, it appears as follows:
