Companies are entities that all transactions and master files are associated with. A NorthScope system is required to be installed with one company but additional companies can be added as needed. Companies can be separate legal entities or divisions within a legal entity that need to be separated for a variety of reasons. The Companies List View shows all the installed companies and from here users can edit or remove records. Companies should only be removed after consulting with NLP Support and companies can only be added by NLP support.
