Move Activities to Another Company

This page describes the 'Move Activities to Another Company" Maintenance function in the CRM module.

---

If your Standard ERP database contains more than one Company, an Activity will usually be saved as follows:

  • If the user creating the Activity is a Global User, the Activity will be saved in the Global User's Main CRM Company.

  • If the user creating the Activity is not a Global User, the Activity will be saved in the Company in which the user is working at the time.
Please refer to the Activities in a Multi-Company Database page for more details about working with Activities when there is more than one Company.

You can use the 'Move Activities to Another Company' function if you need to move Activities from one Company to another. This can be useful if, for example, you need a Person's Activities to be visible in more than one Company, if a Person created an Activity in the wrong Company, or if you simply need all Activities to be stored in the same Company.

To use this function, you should be working in the Company where the Activities are currently stored.
