For groups having multiple companies, users spend a lot of energy switching between each company to monitor, handle and follow-up on sales orders, purchase orders, bank account reconciliations, incoming invoices through AP extension e.g., Continia Document Capture, Shopify Orders etc.
That causes inefficient operations and frustrations for users. Especially trade companies working on intercompany orders, switching between sales and purchase orders in multiple companies. We see some companies that choose another ERP system, because Business Central does not offer the opportunity to work across companies.
I propose to develop the ability to work across companies on pages for open documents. For example on sales order list, by activating the functionality, users should be able to see all sales orders across the tenant within the users permissions. For each sales order, add an indicator in a new column to show which company the sales order is in.

Thank you for this suggestion! Currently this is not on our roadmap. We are tracking this idea and if it gathers more votes and comments we will consider it in the future. Best regards, Business Central Team
