One View Across Branches and Companies

2026/11/04

Each branch with its own spreadsheet means no one sees the whole business. Multi-branch and multi-company support gives branch and company figures from the same data.

Growth usually adds branches, and sometimes new companies. Each one starts with its own set of files. A year later, the owner is asking for a combined picture and the finance team is merging spreadsheets by hand.

The cost of separate books

Separate files make comparison slow and errors likely. Totals differ depending on who prepared them, and it is hard to tell whether a branch is doing well until the consolidation is finished.

Branch-level and company-level figures from the same data

easyFS supports multi-branch and multi-company use:

• Multi-branch: record transactions per branch and review the figures branch by branch.
• Multi-company: manage more than one company in the system.
• One set of data: branch-level and company-level figures come from the same records, so they agree.

Control without bottlenecks

Each branch can enter its own transactions while head office reviews the results. Combined with per-user rights, you can limit what each person sees to the screens and branches they need.

An illustrative scenario

A food business starts with one shop, opens two more branches and later sets up a separate company for its commissary. The owner asks a simple question: which branch is most profitable this quarter? The answer requires four spreadsheets, two of which use different account names.

When every branch and company is recorded in the same system, with the same chart of accounts structure, the question is answered by selecting the branch or company and opening the report. The numbers agree because they come from the same records.

What to look for when you grow

• Consistent structure. Branches should use the same account structure so their figures can be compared.
• Clear ownership. Each branch enters its own transactions, and head office reviews the results.
• Controlled access. Users should see the branches they work in, and head office should see them all.
• One place for reports. The owner should not need to ask three people for three files.

Growth is easier when your accounting does not need to be rebuilt each time you add a location. A system designed for multiple branches and companies lets you add them as part of normal operations.

Ready for growth

Adding a branch no longer means building another set of files. easyFS is cloud-based, with no servers to maintain and no update work, so new locations can start using the same system quickly.

Frequently asked questions

Can each branch enter its own transactions? Yes. Branches record their own work, and head office reviews the results from the same data.

Can one user see several branches? Rights can be limited by screen and branch, so you decide who sees what.

Can I manage more than one company? Yes. easyFS supports multi-company use within the system.
