We are migrating from an existing system where the customers have the following schema for their id which we would like to maintain in acumatica:
Parent Customer Account = 1234567-00
Child Customer Account 1 = 1234567-01
Child Customer Account 2 = 1234567-02
...etc.
The business benefit is for user ease of identifying child accounts (aka locations) which can have many accounts that share the same name, i.e.:
1234567-00 McDonalds (parent account)
1234567-01 McDonalds
1234567-02 McDonalds
1234567-03 McDonalds
...etc.
I understand that the segmented key bizacct can be modified to have additional segments to match this format, however this also effects: vendors, branches, and employees, which in our case we just need a typical 7 digit auto number.
