Phil, Yes are correct. THis is a big job. Especially with COM. I did something 
like this in the old OE&I days. Something to watch out for is Dulicate customer 
no between the 2 companies. Might want to consider using offline load options 
where and when available.
And don't forget any side systems and custom code you may have.
 
Good luck

Hi All,

I'm new to this list and new to Mapics too.

Where I work use Mapics V6, COM, CAS, PUR, IM ....

We are in the process of installing IFM, we currently use CODA as our 
financial package.

Currently one of our environments has two companies 1 and 2. It has been 
decided that, before installing IFM, these companies need to merge i.e. 
all company 2 customers etc. will become company 1 and then company 2 will 
disappear. Has anybody else ever done this ? Any tips ? Is it feasible 
?

My current thinking is that i will have to manually change the company 
number from 2 to 1 on _every_ file that has a company field on it......not 
a simple task.

Thanks,

Phil
