Clients
Clients are a key concept in Bizview. Every installation of Bizview can contain one, or more, Clients. A Client can be defined as a company that has its own set of object dimensions, and therefore, a unique accounting string. As soon as you have entities with separated charts of accounts or vastly differing operational parameters, you should considering creating a new Client.
Access Clients by selecting the System icon from the menu.
Then, select Clients:
To define a new Client, select the Add button at the top of the screen, shown below:
Below is a list of Client fields:
Field | Description | Example | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
Client ID | The unique ID for the Client. | 10 | Keep short, no spaces, no strange characters, numbers, or capital letters. |
Description | The description of the Client. | Sweden | |
Panel Tree | Client user-interface levels. | One default Panel tree in Bizview. Sets content on the Side Panel. | |
Currency Code | Select Client Currency Code. | Choose the standard currency code for the Client. Used in consolidation between Clients. | |
Client Attributes | Use to define additional properties on the client definition. | ||
| Data Container | The ID of the Data Container. | ||
| Default Currency | The default currency for the Client. | USD, EUR, GBP |
Additional Information
Currency Code: Even though a Currency Code is set for the Client, unique and differing currency codes can be stated in the template design.
Panel Tree: If there is a need for custom Side Panel items, to enable additional user access levels, there is a way to accomplish this. Please contact support@ncg-group.com
Copy Client: [nn] Name - This function enables you to copy the settings from one Client to another (existing or new). This is very useful when setting up several Clients that might be very similar.
Usage
CLIENT is used "everywhere" in Bizview. It's a central concept and all data, authorizations, access, and other settings are affected by the Client. Also, the database objects are all designed to use Client as a data integrity field, separating records in a multi-client solution from each other.
To use the logged on CLIENT in different settings, parameters, template formulas, you can type $CLIENT and Bizview will replace that with the logged on Client.
