Controlled access
Give each user the right view—not every company's data.
Multi-company management needs more than a company dropdown. User access must be enforced throughout the application, including reports, exports, background jobs and APIs.
- ✓Company-scoped permissions. Assign users to permitted companies and branches with role-based capabilities.
- ✓Safe company switching. Validate the selected company against the signed-in user's authorized scope on every request.
- ✓Auditability. Record sensitive actions with actor, entity, timestamp and relevant transaction reference.
Core capabilities
Keep company operations aligned without losing control.
Bring entity setup, local processing and group-level insight into a consistent operating model.
Role and scope management
Separate group administrators, company administrators, branch operators and read-only users according to policy.
Entity-level financial records
Keep transactions, tax settings, fiscal periods, numbering and ledgers associated with the correct legal entity.
Cross-company reporting
Compare permitted company-level KPIs and provide consolidated views where data definitions and currency handling support them.
Intercompany coordination
Define controlled workflows for cross-entity sales, purchases, shared services or transfers where required.
Shared master data policies
Decide which data is global and which remains company-specific, with validation to prevent accidental cross-entity duplication.
What to plan for
Reliable multi-company operations start with clear rules.
Choose the data ownership and accounting boundaries before turning on cross-company access.
01
Data isolation
Apply company scope in database queries, authorization policies, APIs, exports, jobs and cached data.
02
Entity accounting
Set company-specific currencies, fiscal periods, tax configuration, document sequences and chart-of-account rules.
03
Consolidation logic
Define exchange rates, intercompany eliminations, ownership rules and reporting periods before presenting group totals.
04
Operational ownership
Clarify who owns customers, suppliers, products, employees, stock and documents shared between companies.
Example process
From central setup to local transactions and group insight.
Use a repeatable operating model so each entity can work independently while authorized users get the visibility they need.
- ✓Set up entities. Create companies and branches, assign configuration ownership and establish accounting boundaries.
- ✓Assign authorized users. Map each role to the companies and functions it may access.
- ✓Process locally. Create orders, inventory movements, employee records and financial transactions under the selected entity.
- ✓Review across entities. Run permitted comparisons and consolidated reports after validating currency, period and intercompany treatment.

Frequently asked questions
Multi-company management FAQs
The intended model supports company and branch assignments with role-based permissions. The deployed application must enforce those assignments on every relevant request and data access path.
Yes, if reporting and consolidation are implemented for the required entities. Currency conversion, fiscal periods, chart-of-account mapping and intercompany eliminations must be defined before totals are treated as consolidated financial statements.
Shared or company-specific master data can be chosen by business policy. The data model should make ownership and sharing rules explicit to avoid unintended cross-company access or duplicate records.
No. Intercompany invoices, balances, transfer pricing, due-to/due-from accounts and consolidation eliminations require dedicated workflows and accounting rules.
No. This is a frontend product page describing the intended capability. Tenant or company isolation, database routing, policies, consolidation logic, audit logging and cross-entity workflows must be implemented and tested in the Laravel backend.
