BBCG.03.04: Configuring the General Ledger within Dynamics 365 for Operations - Module 4: Configuring the General Ledger Organizational Structures

Up until this point our organizational structure within Dynamics 365 for Operations has been pretty simple and our organizations structure has been pretty easy to manage.  But most organizations have a little bit more complexity because they have different business units, departments, cost centers and other organizational structures that they need to take account of within the General Ledger.

In this guide we will take a look at how we can handle all of this within Dynamics 365 for Operations through the inbuilt Organizational modelling capabilities.  Dynamics 365 for Operations allows us to configure our Organizational Structures using all of the structured mentioned above, and then lay them out within business structures which can also be date controlled so when you reorganize your business you can see the before and after structures at any time.

Also these are the foundation for allowing us to assign organizational components within our Chart of Accounts as financial dimensions and then extend out the Account Structures to take advantage of them.
