Hello everyone,

 

just need to clarify this with someone in the “know”...so my company has a Perpetual License for 10 Tenants., does this mean I need to have the tenants in the same database? and same server? 


Thanks in advance!

Hi @mrivera67 

 

In Acumatica ERP, a single instance of the application can serve multiple tenants, which represent separate companies. When you create an application instance, you create at least one tenant. Multiple tenants can use the same application instance with each having completely isolated data. The application looks identical to all tenants, but each tenant has exclusive access to only its data.

...thanks for your reply...i only ask this because when I publish a customization project, it seems to be applying it to all the other tenants in the same database...and that is what I do not want to happen for obvious reasons… is there a work around for that?

 

Kind regards,

Hi @mrivera67 

You can publish package with the production tenant,

Select the tenant which you need to Publish the package in the Customization project screen,

Thanks

...Oh, why is that not enabled in my instance? is this for a particular kind/version of Acumatica only?

Hi @mrivera67 

 

Are you admin login users to Publish package? I see Publish is also not enabled. Could you please check with the Access permission on this.

Customizer roles need to be assigned as well

Thanks

hi manikantad18, did some testing, unpublishing and then publishing using the multiple tenant option and it still just applies the customization to all of the tenants in the same database. why is that when i clearly indicated which tenants to apply it only to?

...so going back to my main issue, if I have a license for 10 tenants, i should be able to create a separate database for each of these tenants and my license will allow that? or does my tenants need to be in the same database?

 

kind regards,
