Hi - We will be adding additional Business Units to certain individuals in existing policies. There GL / Accounting coding will be changed. What is the best way to handle this in Expensify, as the GL / Accounting coding will need to feed to the correct place? Thanks

    Hey there, @JeanK! Thanks for starting this discussion!

    Hm, can you elaborate a bit more on how you are currently mapping Business Units for these users? To start, are you integrating with a third-party accounting platform (such as NetSuite or QuickBooks Online)?

    If so, it's likely we'll need to understand how these business units are currently set up in your accounting platform so we can then map these users appropriately.

    If not directly connected, I'll just need to understand how you're importing your current Business Units into Expensify, as well as how they are exporting to your accounting platform.

    Hi John - Very nice meeting you.

    We currently do not use Business Areas and will be adding them in the near future. The Business Areas will be how we want Expensify data to feed to our ERP. Currently, we have several policies assigned to different business entities. We will be moving to one entity different business areas.

    What is the best way to tackle this? How do we separate the data? Should we setup policies for each business area and move individuals as assigned?

    Thanks for your help!
