I am implementing a client that has 12 entities covering two base currencies. I have setup company groups for use in the restrict visibility field to field in vendor profiles but the problem I am having is there are vendors that need to be available to transact in all entities regardless of the base currency of the entity. This seems like an odd requirement considering we have multi-currency available to resolve vendor currency differences against entity bast currency. 

When a vendor is used in all entities, ss the only solution available one that requires setting up duplicate vendors for each group?

Hello,

I don’t have a Solution for you, but I can confirm: I tested in 2024 R2, and can’t enable Multiple Base Currencies without also enabling Customer & Vendor Visibility Restriction. 

Once Customer & Vendor Visibility Restriction and Multiple Base Currencies are both enabled, I can’t leave blank the Restrict Visibility To field on Financial tab of Vendors profile screen.

If Restrict Visibility To field on Financial tab of Vendors profile screen allows you to select the Company Group (one level above Company)… then your client will still need, at least, two of the same vendor, when the vendor transacts in both currencies.

Please add your idea to the Ideas section of this Community so we may vote for improvement (and a way to merge Vendors - that have different currencies -  in the future, so you can eventually eliminate the duplicate and combine the vendors).
