Managing multiple legal entities in a single centralized ERP system offers numerous advantages for organizations including consolidated reporting, improved visibility, and intercompany transaction management. This is especially true for businesses with a large number of entities or those that operate in multiple countries. 

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations (D365FO) offers a robust solution for managing multiple legal entities called Multi-Entity Management (MEM). MEM provides a centralized view of all of your entities, allowing you to streamline your processes and improve your data accuracy. 

Capabilities of Multi-Entity Management 

MEM in D365FO offers a wide range of capabilities for managing multiple legal entities. Some of the key capabilities include: 

  • Centralized master data management: MEM allows you to create and maintain a single set of master data for all of your entities. This ensures that your data is accurate and consistent across all of your entities. 
  • Centralized transaction processing: MEM allows you to process transactions across multiple entities from a single instance of D365FO. This eliminates the need to duplicate transactions, which can save you time and money. 
  • Consolidated reporting: MEM provides consolidated reporting for all of your entities. This allows you to get a single view of your financial performance across your entire organization. 
  • Intercompany transactions: MEM supports intercompany transactions between your entities. This allows you to track and manage transactions that occur between different entities within your organization. 
  • Security: MEM provides role-based security for all of your entities. This ensures that users only have access to the data and transactions that they need to see. 

BCS can help analyze your business’ needs and implement Dynamics efficiently. Once MEM is implemented, BCS will assist you in monitoring its performance and making necessary adjustments. MEM is a living solution, so we can ensure it is kept up to date with the latest features and functionality.
