Re: Sharing a Table

Date: March 8, 2000

_______________________________________________________________________

Companies and Divisions are two of the first elements that you will need to setup when starting to work with RIMAS NT/P. Multiple companies and divisions can be created to reflect how your business is setup.

Sharing tables allows data that has already been setup for one company and/or division accessible to another company/division without having to re-enter the information.

These tables are used when duplicate information from a single company or division can be shared with other companies and/or divisions without affecting the integrity of the data specific to that single company or division.

NOTE: When planning on using Shared Tables, make sure that the tables to be shared are physically in the same database.

The process of sharing tables begins in the Shared Table Maintenance program in the Administration module.

1. Click ( + ) to insert a new Division.

2. There is a dropdown list of Codes. This contains all of the tables in RIMAS NT/P. Find the table that you want to duplicate.

3. The Company field is the one that already has its tables setup.

4. The Division field is the one that already has its tables setup.

5. Share Co. - From a dropdown list in the grid, select the company that will share the table.

6. Share Div - From the dropdown list in the grid, select the division that will share the table.
